Re: VMs: Rohonczi Codex written from top to bottom



For those with any doubt about which direction the Rohonczi document was written, I found several places where identical sequences were broken in two ways across line endings, each time to be followed on the line below. This is only reasonably expected when the text is to be read from top to bottom.

The most striking example I found thus far spans several lines in the document. See pages 27a, 27 and 28a on:
http://www.dr-savescu.com/codex/original/original.html


The first sequence begins on page 27a on line 9 from the top from io:oi and stretches, reading from right to left downwards to line 13 character 5 from the right (the "crown"). An identical sequence begins at page 27 line 10 starting at io:oi going all the way to page 28a line 1 character 9 (the "crown"). The one character off by the way. the lassoed triangle does not look like a character, more like a logo or drawing.

Now I am curious how this was translated reading upwards. The book does not seem to be too expensive at 400,000 lei (10 euro ?). Does anyone have it?
