Quote:One key event for me in all this is the death of Tepenec. His books were donated to the Jesuit college, but the Voynich MS did not go there. How did that happen? I suspect (but this is pure speculation) that Raphael may have had something to do with this. He was involved with confiscations of properties of deceased people, but I have no record that he knew Tepenec. Both had a Jesuit education and both were buried in the Jesuit St.Salvator church (like Marci) but neither entered the order.

Quote:Maybe he writes his name in it to make it more "his" and almost feels like it's his since he probably spent some time (maybe a lot of time) studying the plant drawings.

Not only the name is there, but also the number. He would not put down this exlibris were the book not actually his.
