So, it was only a little over a month ago that I made a post about the latest confident pronouncement from someone who's 'solved' the mystery of the Voynich Manuscript.* And now, thanks to Janice, I can share another one. This time it's claimed to have Near East affinities (as opposed to Mesoamerican, like last time) and the purported decipherment involves identifying constellations; both claim to have identified plants, but they come from wholly different biospheres (New World and West Asian, respectively). I haven't yet watched the embedded video in the following link, but it's amusing to note that this confident announcement makes no mention of the wholly difference 'decipherment' of a month before.
Here's the link. Enjoy!
