Voynich's anatomy

[Jorge_Stolfi]

I don’t take any of the suggestions made in this thread, drawing parallels between human body parts and VMS illustrations, all that seriously

I don't see any clear anatomical references in the illustrations of any section except Bio/Balneo. In this section, on the other hand, the anatomical refernces are too many and too clear to dismiss as mere "pareidolia".  Many of the drawings clearly were meant to be seen as body organs.

The question is whether the bathing installations and nymphs were meant to be a cover to disguise the anatomical contents, or whether the section is indeed about medicinal baths and the organ drawings are meant to indicate which parts of the body that baths and waters are good for.

Both explanations have their problems.  So maybe it is something else...

All the best, --stolfi
