A SOMEWHAT IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
JustAnotherTheory > 07-02-2026, 08:59 PM
So while we wait for Prof. Stolfi's important announcement, I thought I'd stir the waters a bit with this INCREDIBLY EXCITING theory of my own. So here we have the manuscript BSB Cgm 250, based on a classic Weltkronik from Jans Enkel. This particular MS was copied in southern Germany in the 1st quarter of the 15th century. It's "interesting" because of some matches to the VMS marginalia. The handwriting appears at first glance to be reminiscent of folio f116v:
But wait, there's more:
This looks like the classic "michiton", except for the missing "i".
There is also a match to some handwriting of folio f17r:
And many more "amazing" coincidences appear in this manuscript in relation to the VMS.
Here is a link to the MS:

A beautiful MS indeed with many drawings, that remind one of the Biblia Pauperum style that lies so close to the VMS.

Anyway, a small "divertissement" while we wait for a more important announcement. -

Can't be, it's initiating a defensive roll. -

I like this structure, it's good overall.

That's quite a significant finding actually given this is likely to be 1420 or earlier... -

Yes, but I'm talking specifically about Augsburg... Sorry, probably being blind but could only see general references to Bavaria... I don't believe the text is Bavarian, personally but I know you're a fan of the theory, but I do believe HRE is the most likely producing environment, and Augsburg serves as as good a bridge across the Alps and north to Hargau as any .
That domes were built a little outside the Voynich radiocarbon date, but all that date gives us is an earliest date, not a latest date. By 1480, that view would be normal...
