Observations on the Visual and Functional Structure of the Voynich Manuscript

[pjburkshire]

This image should be read the way I described: from the center toward the edges, turning the page and looking at each side, following the centrico-radial perspective. There are birds nesting and birds passing under the water. This shows that some of the structures were also external. The image marks the critical points where this community had to perform maintenance. By “operational tasks to be monitored,” I mean that the upkeep of these water systems was their responsibility, which is why these drainage structures are so thoroughly depicted. 

My interpretation of 86v3 is of male and female biological roles.  Females tend the nest, nurture offspring.  Males go out into the world.  Upper left, human female.  Lower right, female bird on nest.  Upper right, male bird.  Lower left, human male.

I don't think they are talking about the upkeep of water systems.  I think they are talking about making babies.  Unless you are talking about the "water systems" that males provide to the process of making babies.
