He hoped that Kircher would be able to translate this book for him, but Kircher could not. The book has come down to us and even now, almost 4 centuries later, not a single word from its well over 200 pages can be understood, and it has become one of the most famous historical riddles waiting for a solution.

Sandy, historically there have been several languages that have been undecipherable UNTIL the key is found. Most famously of course the Rosetta Stone, (not the computer programs either). Maybe the key just needs to be found??
