Just to be complete we should probably look at the ones that were mistyped also. For instance the missing/added/incorrect letters sequence should start NN...etc.


I believe it is NSNEDPTOT~E .

Addendum: If everything is included, incorrect letters, extra letters, missing letters and corrected letters.

Addendum 2: Apologies. OwduaNM is right. It would then become DSNEDPTOT~E, unless I'm mis-interpreting something else. Someone may want to triple check this.

I was assuming that the "an" that I have bolded in the first quote was supposed to be AND, leaving out the D


So this is what I have (in order) missing D, S instead of N, D instead of P, extra E, E instead of an A, added T, missing O, missing T, O instead of A, added ~, missing E.


Going straight forward with those I have D[N(S)][P(D)][A(E)]E(T)OT[A(O)]~E.

Hmmm....confusing way to put that.....so here are the letters straight for your copy and paste pleasure. DNSPDAEETOTAOE~ (also someone noted that "parsimoniae" may have an extra e tacked on)

Of course, I may have missed some somewhere.


Someone may want to scour through the pages again looking for spelling errors I may have missed.

EDIT: Added more letters.

i looked at what letters should have been there in the case of an omission, or the letters that shouldn't have been there if an extra was added. I cam up with:

dnpetot

which when plugged into an anagram generator, doesnt give much as far as obvious clues, but i get:

Pend Tot
Dent Opt
Dent Top
Dent Pot
Tend Opt
Tend Top
Tend Pot
Pod Nett
Pod Tent
Dot Pent

using the letters others have pulled out, this list comes up with:

Nee Tots
Nee Tost
Seen Tot
Teens To
Tense To
Teen Sot
Tenet So
Tees Ton
Tees Not
Tee Snot
Tee Tons
En Totes
Eon Stet
Eon Test
One Stet
One Test
Note Set
Tone Set
Ens Tote
Nest Toe
Nets Toe
Tens Toe
Sent Toe
Net Toes
Ten Toes
En Set To

I don't know if this is worth looking at on the SOTA-site but it sure looks 'fishy'

all pictures displaying Stonehenge have filenames with Stondehedge in stead of the correct writing...

Apologies. OwduaNM is a username of the person who I was agreeing with.

Nice catch. I also think that the filename for the clock-like thing (can't remember how to spell what it is called) is important.

Second part might be important.

I just noticed that they spell Antikythera wrong. They have it as Antikythere.

Google suggests that "parsimoniae" might be spelt "parsimonia" and that "Antikythere" could be spelt "Antikythera".

Both of the words can be found on this page.

Great catch. That caught my eye but I didn't think much about it. ABSORBED is the proper spelling, I'll edit my previous posts with this.
