We have analyzed by using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) thin films made of few (three to five) graphene layers grown on the C terminated face of $6H\text{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{Si}\mathrm{C}$ in order to identify the nature of the azimuthal disorder reported in this material. We observe superstructures which are interpreted as Moir\'e patterns …
