As for the line of dots on the back, this is also seen in the VMS scorpio, although it is difficult to see under the green paint (see You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. about this). They don't seem to be the same animal, though.

While I cannot find any particular points of agreement with your approach to that particular image in the manuscript, you will be happy to know that you are not entirely alone in mentioning the Red Sea, Egypt, geographic matter and the Yemen.
It would be exhausting to list the posts in which I've gone into those things at length, but if you search 'Yemen' on voynichimagery you'll find about sixty posts.
I always feel a certain pleasure when I find that others have independently done work which I can rely on rather than 're-inventing the wheel'. Hope you do too.
Just btw, the style in which those animals are drawn, and even their disposition around the lake, pond, or sea are closely comparable to traditional imagery from southern India. Even the multi-tailed one. Cheers.

Not really, although maybe partially. What I see in quire 13 is a variety of water routes that encompass Europe, Asia and Africa. I see this page as outlining the eastern limit of these routes.
