The Vinland Map: Anagrams and… – Part III

In the last two posts about The Vinland Map (see image) many places were found, the signature of the author OM was located and a construction line was found. With numerous other anagrams within the legends OM indicates map assembly instructions.

This map was found bound in a book about Tartars, hence the name, ‘The Vinland Map and the Tartar Relation.’ One may presume this is because several of the legends have the root word Tartar. However, one might want to notice this is an anagram of ‘art art.’ For example: Magnum mare Tartarorum is an anagram of MAN RAT RUMMAGE RUM MOR or ‘Man rat rummage room more.’

Magnum mare Tartarorum is also an anagram of:

NEG ART MAR U M ……. Negative art mar cup M
O                                    ……. O
ART MAR U M           ……. Art mar cup M.

This suggests a mirror image is to be used to create not only the M but the ‘mar cup.’ So what or where is the ‘mar cup’?

Let us proceed to make the real map and perhaps this question will be answered. You will need three copies each of the original and mirror versions.

Next there are two other lines that must be found besides the Apusia/Maori. These are the A lines. One runs through Alexandria and the other through Samaca. Both names have three A’s. Samaca is an anagram of MACS AA or ‘Makes AA.’ Similarly, Alexandria is an anagram of DRA LINE X AA or ‘Draw line across AA.’ Once these two lines are found the map needs to be folded so the lines are brought together. Further study reveals this needs to be done with a mirror image map.

Three lines are used to construct the hidden map.

Use mirror image copy and fold together on A-A lines.

Three fold lines have been found. One should also notice a few other map creation guides. On the upper right there is a point that sticks out. On the lower left there is an indent into which this can fit snugly. It is a tab and slot. There are two other tab/slots. The hook to the left of Norway, modern Denmark, is one and its slot is the indent below Imperiu Basora (the top of the M) on the far lower right. The top of the M will also be used to rest on the west coast of Africa where it fits very nicely. The point that sticks out and its mirror are another joining point. The assembly is as shown below.

Points that kiss to join copy and mirror image.

Tabs and slots used to join copies to make final map.

Lower round. Cut at Apusia/Maori line.

Two such portions, one in mirror, are joined to form a smooth curve.

Two copies kiss at tag points.

The final result will be exactly what is hinted at by two copies, one in mirror, that kiss at the tag points.  Alternatively, hold a map folded along that point against a mirror and see two perfect arcs meeting. Two large arcs meeting in this manner are a notable feature at one place on Earth.

This portion of the map is used to create another section. Two copies needed.

They join as shown using the indents where the points fit. The top portion meets at the ‘Thule Ultima’ legend.

Now enough is known to assemble the complete map using the six copies.

The whole map assembled from six maps.

The Map is the outline of the assembled maps. It is Hudson Bay.

Actual map of Hudson Bay for comparison.

This is none other than a complete map of Hudson Bay which would be the ‘mar cup’, O-den or just plain O for short. It is also referred to as RI. This notation is because the R letter’s numerical equivalent in Futhark is five and I is to be seen as a stroke or one. What significance is there to 5, 1 or 51? The latitude of Greenwich England from which longitude begins is 51. Moreover, 5+1 is 6 and so it says 56. At latitude 56 one finds Belcher Island in the perfect arc at the southern end of Hudson Bay. This is supposed to be the old  location of magnetic north or RI as in ‘are eye.’

The implication is that the entire bay was mapped during the early 1100’s. If OM, King Oystein Magnusson, created this map then it was done prior to 1123 when he passed.

So sad. The nay sayers are still neighing. There is one more post with hidden images and ….. something else. Regardless, one might clearly say this is a true treasure map.

To be concluded in next post! In about a week.
