Using this basic alphabet I have identified a number of plants, herbs and vegetables from the herbal pages. I was not able to decipher all the words, due no doubt to the fact that many of the plants around 500-plus years ago probably had common names that have since fallen into disuse. In addition modification in the spelling of some words may have occurred making it difficult for someone like myself, who does not read or speak Italian, to decipher these words.

well you should actually look at the Ph.D's site and read her research before coming to that conclusion. Da Vinci would have been but a boy when he made this. Which would be even more impressive.

Oh she's a PhD...well then! *laugh*
I'm familiar enough with daVinci to confidently say this isn't his work. You do know that he already has a different way to write and keep his secrets, right? So this 'PhD' is saying he only used that style of writing for ALL HIS OTHER SECRETS...this ONE manuscript he invented a different way to keep his secrets. Sure.
Anyone can believe anything they like...that's the beauty of life.

The vellum of the MS has been dated to the early 15th century (1404–1438). The ink was applied shortly after according to the McCrone Research Institute. Davinci was born 15 April 1452. Check out www.ciphermysteries.com. Davinci was most likely not the author.
