This is very understandable, and it is happening to many people all the time.
Having seen these confirmations, are you still ready to accept critical comments?
This seems like an offensive question, but believe me, I have had many exchanges with people proposing solutions who were not at all receptive of critical comments.
The biggest problem in what you propose is that in 1111 there was no Uranus. It was only discovered in 1781 and it was only officially named Uranus in 1850.
Quote:Uranus had been observed on many occasions before its recognition as a planet, but it was generally mistaken for a star. Possibly the earliest known observation was by Hipparchos, who in 128 BC may have recorded it as a star for his star catalogue that was later incorporated into Ptolemy's Almagest.[18]You are not allowed to view links.

Using your 1-to-1 substitution code on the central text spiral in this castle ring (where it begins to become more legible) you get:
??????... UDED EDEB ETD LIIUSA UR EN U FLEDA AOUSET U UQEN MA UT ETUSET ALESET ALUSET ALETA UQENHA
You might say Talese and variations of it are in there, near the end, but you could take almost any word and create analogs by switching the letters so they fit. Only solutions that provide translations of broader areas of the manuscript than a word or two are defensible without other corroboration for the choice of the word. I don't think the image of the castle is sufficient corroboration. I've found castles that match the pic more closely than Talese and where are the Ghibelline merlons?

The Chateau de Foix is not in Aragon. Aragon is a province of Spain, and the castle's name you mention is in French. A quick look online shows that Foix castle is in Ariege, [i]France.

Dear Rene,
Imagine a sky at night with no lights on the ground that use electricity. The ancients called Uranos the sky and even identified it as a star.
