The Book 'Nobody Can Read'

I remember this facility at U of A! It's helped solve lots of mysteries over the years.

But as far as The Book 'Nobody Can Read', that's simple enough: it's just an early version of my blog:
University of Arizona researchers have cracked one of the puzzles surrounding what has been called "the world's most mysterious manuscript" – the Voynich manuscript, a book filled with drawings and writings nobody has been able to make sense of to this day.

Using radiocarbon dating, a team led by Greg Hodgins in the UA's department of physics has found the manuscript's parchment pages date back to the early 15th century, making the book a century older than scholars had previously thought.
