Unexpected languages
#11
In that case, practically speaking, I would start looking for exactly such manuscripts: ones that represent a language that was possibly written for the first time, where the scribe may have needed to use some creativity. Did they do anything special with the script, what subject are they usually about, etc.

Unless, of course, the VM represents a unique example, a rare dialect or language that hadn't been written until the early 15thC.  - which is a fair possibility. But I don't know how we could use that to our advantage, wouldn't that imply a lack of reference material as well?
