I did a presentation to academics interested in historical ciphers last Thursday the 4th of May. The title of the presentation was "Surviving 14th and 15th century ciphers in archives and documents". This will be appearing as an academic paper in the near future and will probably constitute part of a book that I am writing on cryptography in this period as will the contents of a different presentation that I did last October entitled "Rewriting the History of 15th Century Cryptography in Italian Diplomacy"
The presentation provided an overview of the location and nature of the very many different ciphers surviving from the 14th and 15th century that I am familiar with.
