The Copiale Cipher. A small, mysterious book from the 18th century with a lot of secrets. In this video, we'll take a look into how the code was solved by a team of academics and how it revealed a mysterious group known as the Oculists.
It has been great seeing some more eyes on this channel (not longer just me). I am always open for advice or suggestions in the comments, I am sure there's much I can learn from you all.
