20+ years ago, there was a lively discussion about that manuscript in a relevant internet chat room. It was then that Jorge Stolfi suggested that it could be close to the Sino-Tibetan language family. Shortly after that, I happened to read in the press a village name Hogglar Chor (in Bangladesh)... which seemed to be from that manuscript. Therefore, I added to Stolfi's hypothesis that perhaps it is worth looking first at the languages of western Burma and the Chittagong Hill Tracts.
