Thucydides Cryptogram

Solving Approach

This one works out to about 4.5 letters per word on average. This puzzle leans toward longer words — apostrophes and doubled letters will likely crack it open faster than word length alone. Medium puzzles like this one often hinge on spotting doubled letters early — they narrow down vowel candidates faster than frequency counts alone.
