Cribs in the Voynich MS

[Mark Knowles]

I would submit the "Europe", "Africa" and "Asia" on the T/O map in the top right corner of the Rosettes folio. I would argue that in the centre of f68v3 we have a T/O map containing "Europe" and "Africa", however the semi-circle that would contain "Asia" actually contains a list of places in Asia.

I would also argue that on the Rosettes folio on the causeway connecting the bottom left Rosette and the centre left Rosette the "diamond" shape has the four directions "North", "East", "South" and "West" around it, though probably in an abbreviated form.

Then there are all the star names on f68r1 and f68r2, but these are more difficult because we dont have any indication which star is meant in each case.

Next are the labels in the pharme section, near each of the small plant fragments.

These are potentially great, however there are a few more steps before one can arrive at a reliable crib for these.
