Item 25 is Metoposiapia, a dubious word, from 17th century Italy. The better word is metoposcopia or metoposcopy, words you probably don't recognize either. It is a lost art. This is where you look at lines and other markings on the face, particularly the forehead, run them past some astrological charts, and from this determine the person's future. I'm not sure why this useful science has been forgotten. This would have been a skill practiced, and perhaps held closely by its practitioners, hence a logical subject for manuscript rather than printed books. This one was likely created and used by a practitioner. £6,000 (US $9,677).
