1. A rare ancient language phonetical or real
Stolfi’s theory that it is an Asian language. Or it could be a very rare dialect that no one speaks or know anymore (I’m not allowed to say here which one that might be).
2. It is a made-up language, see Hildegard von Bingen.
3. It is a complex, section-dependent generator that would be completely anachronistic for its time (whether it’s a hoax or not doesn’t even matter here).
4. It is a nomenclature system with lists switched by f.e. line-start markers, and the lists no longer exist.
Except for Stolfi’s approach and possibly easier Genereators of option 3, none of these possibilities can be solved even with AI or a quantum computer. That is because this is not a problem of computing power or artificial intelligence.
For me these 4 points look much less likely than a combination of a specific plaintext and a relatively simple character level cipher (homophonic and not a nomenclature), that can still produce a result like this. All character level statistics can be explained by using a cipher, all larger level statistics can be explained by the structure of the plaintext, in principle. On the other hand, I think all 4 options above are highly unlikely. 1 and 2 would be solvable by mapping labeled images and text. 4 seems highly impractical. And I don't even understand what 3 is in practice. An elaborate game of cards and dice? A divination tool?
