The Somerton Code, shown to the right, demonstrates distinct patterns; for example there is “ABAB”, “TTMT”, and “AIA”. These patterns are bounded by letters which are hard to identify (e.g. first letter of first and second lines - W’s or M’s) or may be crossed out (such as the O in the third line).

Several test cases were designed to investigate theories regarding the code.
# Pattern Match for “ABAB”, “TTMT”, “AIA”, “TTMTSAMST”. Based on the theory of a substitution cipher. Pattern matching would be able to detect words with these patterns.
# Exact Initial Match for “RGOABAB”, “TBIMPANETP”, “MLIAB”, “AIAQ”, “TTMTSAM”. Based on the English Initialism theory. 
These sequences are designed to avoid ambiguous letters evident in certain sections of the code.

Seed websites that have been chosen for this trial investigation are poem archives. The reasoning behind this is the structure of the code suggesting a four line poem is possible, along with the fact it was found in the back of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam; a book of poems.
