I'm not sure of the language but I believe the script is from a manuscript that was believed to be written in the 15th century. It's Author is unknown as is it's translation. I don't believe the pictures to be from the manuscript but I may be wrong.

You may have heard of it as a result of the Necronomicon-Ex-Mortis, which is a creation of the movies and not to be confused with Lovecraft's Necronomicon which is his literary invention.

And that will be my next endeavor, but for now I found some similarities and I will post up the pics.



This picture was not included in the links I placed in the OP, but are to be found in the text somewhere as I said earlier, it is tedious.

But I found another pic in the 12 keys of Basil Valentine that corresponds rather closely, with slight deviation.



This one came from the page called "Rosie" in my original inquiry.

mv.lycaeum.org...

And this next one comes from .............

www.alchemywebsite.com...



So there are similarities between these two manuscripts, but the Basil Valentine ones only seem to include 12 pics and slight deviation.



From the 12 keys Basil Valentine

So we have some of the 12 keys found in the lycaeum site, but there are still some more that aren't in the 12.

Any ideas from here?

It almost seems as if the manuscript is a compilation of several different alchemical texts.

Prescott Currier, a US Navy cryptographer who worked with the manuscript in the 1970s, observed that the pages of the "herbal" section could be separated into two sets, A and B, with distinctive statistical properties and apparently different handwritings. He concluded that the Voynich manuscript was the work of two or more authors who used different dialects or spelling conventions, but who shared the same script. However, recent studies have questioned this conclusion. A handwriting expert who examined the book saw only one hand in the whole manuscript


en.wikipedia.org...

Note the mention of the Voynich manuscripts in the Wiki article about the Necromomicon

A hoax version of the Necronomicon, edited by George Hay, appeared in 1978 and included an introduction by the paranormal researcher and writer Colin Wilson. David Langford described how the book was prepared from a computer analysis of a discovered "cipher text" by Dr. John Dee. The resulting "translation" was in fact written by occultist Robert Turner, but it was far truer to the Lovecraftian version than the Simon text and even incorporated quotations from Lovecraft's stories in its passages. Wilson also wrote a story, "The Return of the Lloigor", in which the Voynich manuscript turns out to be a copy of the Necronomicon.

The images appear to come from the following alchemy website:

Haven't investigated further, but it could be a PARALINGA translation of some of the texts on alchemywebsite.com

Edit to add that although these pics aren't showing up on the thread if you click the little icon it will link you to the jpeg image.
