A researcher recently found an unknown manuscript from Leonardo Da Vinci in a library in France. Apparently the reseracher that found it was led to it by a reference in Da Vinci biography. I think that would be pretty cool to find something like that. Apparently the manuscript has not yet been decoded. Maybe it is directions to where the real Grail is at. ;D
That's cool – but the article refers to it as a “coded manuscript”, and they don't give more info. They tempt us, then leave us hanging!
It is my understanding that most of Da Vinci's writings were in a code he devised himself. That, and the enigmatic pictures he painted are one reason Dan Brown could get away with so much character assassination about him in his books.
It's amazing how many puzzles Da Vinci left for scholars of the 1990s-today to figure out!Mona Lisa backdrop depicts Italian town of Bobbio, claims art historian
Oh, how I hope we find some of Leonardo's notes which were too personal to share. Analyzing this man is never-ending.
