Are the 1430s the most likely date range for the Zodiac drawings?

To sum it up.
Diepold Lauber (draughtsman Diepold Schilling) copied the Book of Nature by Konrad Megenberg. Book of Nature written 1348-1350.

Konrad Megenberg used the book "Liber de natura rerum" and translated the Latin into German.

"Liber de natura" is written by Thomas of Cantimpré around 1240.

It is certain that the book has been around for 200 years. The question is how far was the clothing copied and what is self-interpretation.

There were others who copied the book.
Example: Michael Baumann (monk).

It is not possible to estimate before or after 1430. Probably before, since the book was apparently very well known and was certainly taught at some universities.
