A Medieval Czech Penitential Prayer Behind the Cryptographic Enigma of Santa Maria La Nova?
(Tartu University Library, 2026-06-22) Palma, Cosimo; Helm, Louie; Desenclos, Camille; Pierrot, Cécile
This paper presents renewed attack on the encrypted inscription housed in the Turbolo Chapel of the Neapolitan Church of Santa Maria La Nova. Following the cryptanalytic hypothesis of monoalphabetic substitution and the multilingual leads explored in related works, the present contribution investigates Old Czech, a candidate not yet systematically tested against the cipher. Through a combination of n-gram-driven automated decryption via AZdecrypt and LLM-assisted segmentation of the resulting scriptio continua, a candidate reading has been obtained, pointing to a medieval Czech penitential prayer. Although a definitive solution cannot be provided without the support of philologists and cryptologists versed in Czech and related languages, the convergence of statistical, lexicographic and thematic evidence constitutes to date the strongest cue for this long-standing historical puzzle.

A new attack on the mysterious inscription of Santa Maria La Nova
(Tartu University Library, 2025) Palma, Cosimo; Bonavoglia, Paolo; Rugova, Yll; Antal, Eugen; Marák, Pavol
Expanding upon the established hypothesis of monoalphabetic substitution with potential transposition and polyalphabetic elements, this analysis of the Santa Maria la Nova epigraph incorporates Ancient Greek, Old Church Slavonic, Old Romanian and Old Albanian, thus exploring the possibility that the cipher’s plaintext derives from historically under-examined languages, particularly those with cultural and historical ties to medieval Naples and its Eastern Mediterranean networks. Special attention is given to aligning the analyzed corpora with the epigraph's actual textual rendering and to the evaluation of multilingualism.

DECODE2LOD: Connecting the DECODE Database with the Linked Open Data Cloud
(Tartu University Library, 2025) Palma, Cosimo; Megyesi, Beáta; Antal, Eugen; Marák, Pavol
This paper presents a novel approach to enhancing the analytical power and interoperability of historical cryptology data by transforming the DECODE database into a Linked Open Data (LOD) resource. We introduce a methodology for modeling encrypted historical documents and cipher keys as a knowledge graph, encompassing ontology development, data transformation, and SPARQL-based querying. This integration enables complex queries across domains, encourages collaboration beyond cryptology, and aligns DECODE with broader efforts in digital humanities and open science. By bridging historical cryptology with LOD principles, we offer a scalable framework for enriching specialized research databases through semantic technologies.
