What we see is: ooooooooo
This is already suspicious, but you might think that it is just an ornament in the circle. What is really shocking and surprising is that next and in the same circle we see the o's mixed with other glyphs of the VM script. Throughout the book there is no greater proof that this is not a linguistic system but to something else.
Obviously, what that o means is the symbol of the degree of the sphere
Hi Antonio. Ellie Velinska, in one of her blog posts, was the first to draw my attention to the striking parallel between the ooooooooo on the rim of the roundel on f70r1, and You are not allowed to view links.

But could they have both had a common influence? JKP has written about this ooooooooo also, and sees a close parallel in the pseudo-text, usually tapering down to dots at at least one end, used to decorate roundels and mandorlas in earlier medieval manuscripts.
