Finding parallels for Month Names handwriting (Work in Progress)
#21
I'm no cartographer, but... the area outlined on the map in Post #19 would seem to have a fair amount of overlap with the historical Burgundian State during the VMs C-14 dates.

Mention of the Burgundian State (post 1430) brings up 'pre-historical' references to potential interpretations of the "notorious G. Fleece" in the VMs. Once associated with mythical Melusine of Luxembourg, who is herself now seen as a reputed ancestral connection to the Valois descendants of Bonne of Luxembourg. And second of the fleece being overlaid with an image of the Agnus Dei, in a particular structural arrangement found only in a manuscript [BNF Fr. 13096 f. 18] that was once part of the Burgundian library.

This was a cultural high point - so they say - and it would have drawn in many external influences. Not to mention the Portuguese.
