Looking at You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. again, ix and Marix could be greek .. ix is an abbreviation of Jesus, and Marix might be Marie but adding x just to make it rhyme
In charms "x" or "x - with a little r shape above" was generally "Christus" from the first letter of the Greek spelling. There might be "ix" too, but I think x is more normal from what I've seen. Or IHS.
It's funny (and worrying) how quickly you pick up on what stuff means in charms, and if 10 minutes into "charm school" I know what "In . n . p . et . f . et . ss . a ." is and spot it in many places, I wonder what a guy who's completed "charm school" knew..
In regards to "ix" I think the six and VIx (assuming numerals + x "magic") might be "real". I found this (15C) example interesting "recite six Pater Nosters and six Ave Marias 'in honour of the six wounds that Christ suffered on the cross'. The sixth wound may have referred to the wounds on Christ's head, or the lashes on his back"
Anyway, I'm waffling. It was a great video Koen and thanks for reaching out to experts. Lots to ponder
