my suggestion about the author of MV

[rasiratros]

Do you mean the person who added the handwriting on 116v being a co-author?

Yes, I think it's possible. The handwriting on folio 116v is probably early-to-mid 15th century and there's Voynichese on that folio, so I think it's possible.

Is it the same handwriting as the VMS? That's a more difficult question. It's very hard to tell. I'm trying to gather data on this, but it's a very slow process.

The problem with the VMS text is that some of the glyphs are leaned backwards, which means it might not be the scribe's normal handwriting. Plus, some of the shapes are not found in medieval texts.

We don't have much to compare... only the shape of the "o" and the "a" and the shape of the tails, and maybe the shape of EVA-m and EVA-g.

The other glyphs don't help much. The spacing doesn't help much either because IF it is a cipher, it was very common for ciphers to be spaced out wider than regular handwriting.

I wonder why in folio 116v Latin letters are written as if with an uncertain hand. Have you notice that the glyphs are written more widely than the Latin ones in 116v? maybe this is because of different feathers?
