The book no one can read: Why can’t anyone decipher this mysterious manuscript? | The Hot Word
The book no one can read: Why can’t anyone decipher this mysterious manuscript? | The Hot Word
What a fascinating object. What if you were to write a book in a code that you and only one other person knew? What if that book were to fall into the hands of scientists hundreds of years later? What would it look like to them, this great mystery which you created? What if you didn't leave a key? I suppose the ultimate issue here is that we humans like a mystery. We will spend inordinate amounts of time and energy figuring out what something mysterious is and means, even if there is no valid reason for doing so.
In the end, this makes me want to create my own mysterious text and put it on a bookshelf in a library somewhere and see who picks it up and what becomes of it forty or fifty years from now. :)
