Morten St George Theory

[Morten St. George]

But I'm not sure there is a link with the Voynich manuscript.
If that can help you in your researchs, I'm happy with that.

Thanks, Paris. In fact my entire Made-in-the-Americas theory for the VMS is based on VMS marginalia that establishes the VMS as the original source of a small subset of Nostradamus prophecies, specifically, thirty-nine prophecies most of which I managed to identify and extract from Nostradamus back in 1982. I had never heard of the VMS until six or seven years ago, so for more than thirty years it was a fruitless effort trying to find the source.

It follows that I have an enormous advantage over every other scholar who has approached the VMS because I know what some of it says. I also know who decoded and published it in the 16th century and I am familiar with their other writings some of which relates to the history of the VMS. Most of all, being familiar with the prophetic content, I was able to track down external commentary of those prophecies from the 12th century onward.

The most surprising place where I encountered commentary on the Nostradamus prophecies was in the Spanish Chronicles on the Conquest of Peru. It seems at least two of the Nostradamus prophecies circulated widely in Peru during the reign of Viracocha Inca, 1410 to 1438. Though the sources indicate that the VMS passed through Peru on its way to England, it was reportedly found in Mexico, so I’m thinking another copy of the VMS could have reached Peru in the early 15th century. VMS copies may have been mass produced in Mexico prior to the rise of the Aztec empire.
