  In the Voynich Manuscript, we clearly don't see a humanist hand: but the 'raw' radiocarbon dating range would - as Sergio's dating implies - be I think a little too early for a humanistic hand. And this is a palaeographical paradox that isn't easy to shift. Oh, and feel free to go through all the palaeography source books you like (I went through more than fifty at the British Library), but I'll be surprised if you find anything matching well earlier than 1450.

  Just for clarification, Nick, to make sure we're on the same page. Which parts are you referring to when you "anything matching". I assume you mean some of the glyphs that make up Voynichese, but it would help to know which parts you mean.

  I meant matching the overall style, and of the airy clear loops of Currier A rather than of the cramped no-time-to-sharpen-my-quill Currier B. ;-)
