Thank you. Dive into the past with a book thats one of the worlds greatest unsolved mysteries. For more than two years one course a garcia from book us in Northern Spain has been studying the voyage manuscript thought to have been written some six hundred years ago its author reason known and the writing remains undecided furred the images sparked the imagination but no ones sure what they mean is that the coming down here of theories that the book might have been written in a kind of encoded latin.
