In 1912, rare book dealer Wilfrid Voynich discovered a mysterious manuscript that continues to baffle experts. Carbon-dated to the early 1400s, this illustrated codex contains unknown plants, astronomical diagrams, and text written in a script that has never been deciphered.
The manuscript was once owned by Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II, who paid 600 gold ducats for it - a fortune at the time. Its 234 pages feature detailed illustrations of unidentifiable herbs, zodiac symbols, and figures of bathing women.
Despite centuries of attempts by linguists and cryptographers, the manuscript\'s text remains unreadable. Statistical analysis suggests it follows patterns of a real language, with at least two distinct dialects identified.
The Voynich Manuscript now resides at Yale University\'s Beinecke Library, where it continues to intrigue scholars and researchers seeking to unlock its secrets.
