Like some other alphabets, it has interesting properties, like Voynich-resembling glyphs and a non-decimal system for writing numbers - but that is not the subject of this thread. It was the following sentence that made me wonder:
Quote:Examples of Palmyrene inscriptions were printed as far back as 1616 but accurate copies of Palmyrene/Greek bilingual inscriptions were not available until 1756. The Palmyrene alphabet was deciphered in the 1750s, literally overnight, by Abbé Jean-Jacques Barthélemy using these new, accurate copies of bilingual inscriptions.
If Voynichese is the result of enciphering in the strictest sense, it is just a matter of finding the key. Like "oh the vowels have just been left out and then you can convert it to Latin". This can be found, if studied long enough.
However, what if Voynichese is a historically developed writing system that is only known from this one source? For example, Byblos script is known from a dozen of inscriptions, and as yet it remains undeciphered. So if Voynichese is not a "find the key" cipher - is it possible to ever understand it without external sources like a bilingual document?
You have seen my work here and I firmly believe that you have to construct your own cipher. Many attempts at this in the past for the MS-408 without results have been tried. The possibility I think of a Rosetta stone’s existence maybe in John Dee’s Library, but that would require leafing through every page of all his books in search of some note. If this has been done, with nothing found; then the Rosetta stone for the Voynich Manuscript may have been lost when some of his books were stolen. Frequency analysis of just about every language has been tried in an attempt to crack the Voynich Manuscript with null results. Even Stephen Bax’s method should be scrutinized more, because of his syllabic and mnemonic approach based on first using the text of a plant in f2r.
To me it’s a numbers game and I have been met with huge criticism here for this, but the Voynich now screams out with numbers. Yes I have tried Italian and Latin with null results. The reason why languages don’t work is just the fact that it is in numbers and sentence structure never occurs, because verbs, adjectives nouns, pronouns and prepositions don’t come together correctly for any language due to the fact of glyph arrangement. That is not to say there is no structure, but all these years the approach may have concluded it was not in numerology. On top of this mess of running concurrent words doubles and triples and weird glyph arrangements with some sentences that have the same glyph openings for sentences in many rows or columns. How many token endings with an 89 will wake you guys up? (o=6, 9=9, 8=8, 4=4, e=5, and a=1)

These number labels are familiar in Pythagorean Numerology. If analyses were done even without the, “c” I bet these numbers have the highest total combined against the text. Unfortunately without picture labels its near impossible to decipher using my method and I know the ieuan Dee signature looks contrived but I doubt it.
The Welsh words totaling around 64 which I decoded using numerology further backs up my claim for the use of numerology. I think some people here should investigate my method in a serious fashion looking in the text for labels I have not hit yet if any. We are running out of labels for my method.
Thank you for this post Koen J
