A new Theory about Voynich MS

[RenegadeHealer]

IMO there are a lot of reasons to consider the Basques.

I stand corrected. 

I recall some discussions of the moribund Erromintxela language and culture (culturally Basque Romani / Sinti) with reference to Stephen Bax's theory on a Romani connection, either here on on Stephen Bax's blog. I see a parallel also with southern rural Japan's crypto-Christians, who've passed down an exclusively oral gospel in secret since Tokugawa Ieyasu's expulsion of the Portuguese, closing the borders, and banning of Christianity. The gospel story has become retold and filtered through far-flug cultural lenses without correction from source materials for so long, that the story is barely recognizable. (In it Virgin Mary is from the Philippines, for one thing. Jesus made it to Japan and is still buried there, also.) I also recall my Jewish wife's "uncanny valley" reaction to videos of Jamaican members of the RastafarI faith talking about their beliefs. The symbols and references were clearly of Jewish origin, but only superficially understood and used to mean different things than she was used to. My point is, I agree that the Basques and other peripheral peoples of medieval Europe could definitely have received great wisdom from lands far away, but put very much their own spin on it, such that the traces of its origins are incompletely preserved.
