Parchment being very expensive, was frequently reused with the old text and drawings being removed and the pages reused. Not convinced yet that there is anything supernatural about this but I guess it piques interest and brings in money for further research.

No, nothing supernatural. I’m sure the author would agree.

The Archimedes Palimpsest is a great example of this.
