Why do I see swallow-tailed battlements, European architecture in houses and churches, clothing, German text, as well as possible Romanesque text.
How do I reconcile plants with this information.
The C-14 analysis is secondary right now.
If I now take the safest plants, I can make comparisons in other books of the time. If several books about the plant write the same thing, I have a good starting point about what could be written in the VM about the same plant, even if I can't read the text, but a good starting point.
Now I have a way of encoding.
The meadowsweet has no text, but a few words. Name, special characteristic? What makes the plant so interesting that the author didn't write anything about it?
Where is the special feature?
Don't just think about plants, try to see the whole.
