Great article, thanks for sharing.
This was also interesting to read:
'One of the sketches showed an isosceles right triangle with "Equatione di Moti" written along the hypotenuse. Gharib was curious about the meaning of the phrase, but it was in old Italian and also written backward in Leonardo's trademark "mirror writing." '
According to Wikipedia[0], one of the hypotheses for his motivation to write like this was to have better recall of the material.
