If this overlap is easy to find then you or JKP should have no difficulty in finding these glyphs in other non-Voynich sources
  • I have no difficulties finding the Latin characters/abbreviations/ligatures in non-Voynich sources. They are COMMON. I have posted MANY examples on my blog and on the Ninja forum.
  • I have no difficulties finding Latin numbers that match VMS chars in non-Voynich sources. They are COMMON and I have posted numerous examples on my blog and on the Ninja forum.
These comprise the majority of Voynich glyphs.
  • I have no difficulties finding the Coptic/Old Russian A in numerous manuscripts. It is only one character and it is a moderately rare character. I think I've posted examples, but I'm not sure.
  • I have mentioned the Greek "atto" char a number of times. I have probably also screensnapped abbreviations that are similar (the staircased abbrev. symbols with dots) but I don't know if I've posted them.
  • I have no difficulties finding examples of Greek benching and stacking concepts. They are common and I have posted examples on my blog.

These comprise a minority of Voynich glyphs and are more speculative than the Latin shapemates, but that is because they are conceptual (benching/stacking is a concept, not a specific shape). I have discussed them in blogs and have posted examples.

Good grief, Mark, I've mentioned this character a number of times. It is ONE character in the VMS and this specific character is found in Coptic, Slavic, Greek, sometimes in scientific texts, and sometimes Old Russian scripts (and NO Old Russian is NOT Glagolitic). ONE character, THIS character --> x. You completely mischaracterized what I wrote. I didn't say anything about a bunch of characters in different alphabets, I never have. Different alphabets in different languages sometimes use the same character-shape just as English and Latin and Greek all use the letter "o" and the x character shows up in a few medieval languages.
