Hello there, I came upon the cipher from Santa Maria La nova church in december and after a few weeks of searching about it I stumbled upon your repos. It is so cool to see someone actually use computer science in order to crack it, as I intended to do as well. Would you like to work together in order to find a solution for the cipher?

Great work btw.

Hi DarkPredator,

thank you so much for your support! Two is indeed better then one. The problem is that I am carrying out a phd, and my supervisor is already (justly) pissed that I have thrown so much time for a project which does not relate to my phd thesis. I am at your side for any question you may have, feedback, suggestions, but I cannot perform any task anymore. In one week I am getting notice whether the related paper will be accepted at Histocrypt2023, the international conference for historic cryptology, and after the corrections I can send it to you, so that you can see what has been already done, and you do not lose time. In the paper I individuated many tasks which may be performed in the future, to attempt the final decryption. We could start from the ones you also regard as meaningful. My name is Cosimo, and you may call me so from now. Have a nice week, and if you reply, please let me briefly know about you, and what exactly triggererd your curiosity about the inscription.

talk to you soon!

Hello Cosimo, First of all my name is Cosmin (kinda similar to your name I know). We could chat on email if it is ok with you (my email is cosmin19.ccg@gmail.com). If you don't have time to try things maybe I could work on them when I find some spare time. You can send me your paper once you finished it so I could have a look. Thanks a lot!

Talk to you soon!

Hello Cosimo,

Did you manage to finish the paper for Histocrypt conference? I have some ideas on how it could be solved (somehow bruteforcing the solution), but I might need some help with it. It would be cool to talk about this over the email (and easier). You have my address in the previous comment. Thanks!

Also, I forgot to tell you why I am interested in this topic. Well it seemed really weird for me that Vlad Tepes was supposedly burried in Napoli in a church with a secret writing on the wall and it made me really curios (Maybe the text is not related to him but still a pretty cool enigma). And I also like puzzles (and escape rooms) so it is a nice way to something in between important stuff.

Have a great day!

Hello Cosmin,

I think I replied you by email last month. If you received any, than let´s check whether your email address is correct, or provide me another contact please. I would like to talk to you about the epigraph in more detail. Thanks a lot for your interest and support.

Regards,

Cosimo

Hello Cosimo,

I did not receive your email and I also checked the spam. Maybe try sending it again on: cosmin19.ccg@gmail.com or on studios.ccg@gmail.com. Thanks!

Have a great day, Cosmin
