A lot of flowers have dots as well. So we have hairy leafs, hairy roots, and hairy flowers ?
So on one hand we have many dots on the herbal drawings,
but the letter i in the manuscript however lacks the dot always.
On the rosette and cosmo pages, we also see a lot of things, rocks? pipes? with dots.
Are those hairy rocks? As in bacteria growing on rocks. Strange.
Dots were also extremely popular as embellishments. The backs of lizards and crocodiles, the edges of chairs and roofs, pillars, clothing, tools, etc., were frequently embellished with dots.
Sometimes the dots were meaningful... as when they were used to show indentations (similarly to how crosshatching came to mean shadows).
Some of the plants in very stylized herbals have dots (and colors) that have nothing to do with the plant, while other times the dots are meaningful (the plant dracontea has dots in real life and almost always is shown with dots in herbal manuscripts).
