Original Manuscript
At first glance, the manuscript resembles a herbarium or medicine manual, but for over 100 years the best cryptologists in the world have not been able to decipher its contents. The author of the manuscript is also unknown, and all historical references leave more questions than answers.
The Voynich manuscript is 120 pages of the format 15 by 22.5 centimeters on thin calfskin parchment (originally there were 272) covered with incomprehensible letters and decorated with drawings of plants, signs of the zodiac and bathing women. It owes its name to Michał Wojnicz, a Polish antiquarian, chemist and pharmacist, who in 1912 acquired a manuscript from the Jesuits from the Mondragone villa in Frascati.
