Voynich's anatomy

[eggyk]

May I ask, what is the body part on You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. thought to be?

Hard to tell.  If we consider how much the Scribe mangled other illustrations (not just in Bio, but in other sections too), the two organs that were meant to be depicted there could be eyeballs, kidneys, testicles, ovaries, ...  maybe even lungs...

The serpentine pipe in the E margin of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. does not look much like the intestines either.  However, what else could it be?  I cannot imagine why one would build a water pipe with that shape, in a bath house or anywhere else.  

That serpentine pipe by itself still suggests anatomy only weakly.  But together with the other drawings on  that page, the suggestion is too strong to dismiss.

If You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. and You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. are the the most obvious examples of body parts, yet 77v doesn't really look like intenstines, and 83v is unclear enough that it could be any number of potential body parts, is it really that obvious a connection at all?

Of course we will then see other drawings as body parts when primed to look for it. The same would happen with any other theory, including the bodies of water examples shown earlier.
