No text, but a visual code

[Antonio García Jiménez]

I've said it before but it seems important to remember it. The only thing I do is put all the pieces together and give them a meaning, but the pieces were already put in place by the great researchers of the 20th century.

I explain: 

--Like Panofsky, I believe that the misnamed nymphs are astral spirits, so there is no biological or balneological section in the VM.

--Like Mary D' Imperio, I think the script is a mix of astrological symbols and ancient Arabic numerals. She added alchemical symbols, but in reality these are confused with astrological ones. She also added Latin abbreviations, and I can even agree because it is as if they had been used for another purpose than linguistics.

--Like Friedman and Tiltman, I also believe that the script is an artificial language invented. The only difference is that I think it is an iconic code and not a phonetic one.
