For centuries people have tried to decipher the meaning of the Voynich manuscript, and now a computer scientist claims to have cracked it using AI.
The 600-year-old document is described as 'the world's most mysterious medieval text', and is full of illustrations of exotic plants, stars, and mysterious human figures.
The 240-page manual's intriguing mix of elegant writing and drawings of strange plants and naked women has some believing it holds magical powers.
But even the cryptographers from Bletchley Park, the team that broke the Nazi enigma code, couldn't make sense of the manuscript.
Now a computer scientist says the manuscript is written in ancient Hebrew and the code involves shuffling the order of letters in each word and dropping the vowels.
While his is still to decipher its full meaning, he believes the first sentence of the text says: 'he made recommendations to the priest, man of the house and me and people.'

You can buy a copy/reprint of the Voynich for a lot less than that; might not look as authentic, but nicer on your bank account:

Nothing “ancient Hebrew” there that I can see.
Probably just doodles.
.
Ancient Hebrew is completely pictographic, but nothing shown here is.
That is hilarious!
Naked ladies salute!
The tub has 7 ladies....wonder if it is reference to the star constellation...”The Pleides”!(the seven sisters)

I keep remembering what LOL means! Thank you!
Someone has been in the Tower of Terror at a Disney Park.

Heh, Heh
Robert David Steele even says it was “the Jews” that shot a missile at Hawaii!
Antisemitism knows no bounds.
“It would appear that Voynich has figured out how women work, and wanted to share that knowledge - unabridged - with the world.”
Nekkid woman do have magical power(s) over men. Ask any stripper.
Why don’t men have boobs?
Because nothing would get done.
Every few years, somebody comes up with an idea of what it’s about or where it came from.
(The last one, if I recall, identified some of the plants depicted as New World ones...)
Popeye’s cans of spinach.
And since they control the media, they're probably the ones who wrote that song, "I'm Going Back to Miami". ;^)
This thing cant be that old. I see otter box about halfway down that first page close-up.
A day late, and a dollar short, but I take it to mean that the language, not the script used to write/transliterate it, is Ancient Hebrew.
