The multispectral imaging has unveiled hidden details in the Voynich manuscript, intensifying scholarly interest and providing new data to analyze its undeciphered text.
Davis published scans revealing three columns of lettering added to the manuscript's opening folio, suggesting early decryption attempts by former owner Johannes Marcus Marci.
Despite the new findings, Davis cautions that these added alphabets are unlikely to facilitate the actual deciphering of the Voynich manuscript.
The manuscript, housed at Yale, continues to baffle experts with its 15th-century script, inspiring numerous theories about its purpose and origins.
