The Voynich manuscript is an illustrated  hand-written manuscript in a language unknown which has been carbon dated to the 15th century. Included is a full language repeated perfectly throughout the document, pictures and descriptions of animals and plants, and several, and I mean several drawings of portly women in bathtubs for reasons unknown. But we here at grognostics say let them bathe.

 

The origins, language and reasons behind the creation of this ancient tome are debated but one thing is for certain, you won’t find out the true origins from this podcast that’s for sure. But we will pique your curiosity, for woman in baths. Was it an ancient encyclopedia for a civilization we’ve yet to unearth? A fictional work of art created meticulously? The workings of a bathing woman aficionado? One can only hypothesis.

 

Join us as we dive into this ancient mystery.
