In the Middle Ages, parchment, made from animal skins like sheep, goats, or calves, was used for book pages. The creation process was tedious: skins were soaked in limewater for three to ten days to loosen hair, scraped clean, and then washed in fresh water to remove lime. The skins were stretched on a frame, and a rounded knife was used to achieve the desired thickness. This scraping process lasted several days, and the frame was tightened as the skin dried. The final product, parchment, was smooth, durable, and capable of lasting over a thousand years, but required additional preparation before it could be written on.
