A family of grammars for Voynichese

[oshfdk]

I thought that because you said you reviewed a lot of European signatures of the XV-XVII centuries, I assumed doing that was inside the field of paleography (not sure exactly how it's defined, tbh  ). In any case, an enviable skill!

I primarily used the Vatican Digital Library (and also a Swiss digital artifacts site, though I don’t remember its name). I opened the index and began searching for letters from people whose signatures might start with A. I reviewed around 120–140 letters from 40–50 people, I think. Enough to get a basic understanding of how people signed letters back then, but certainly not enough to earn the paleography badge
