consistently committed to particular principles and objectives. Any leader
who is quickly and easily influenced by shifts in popular opinion will
accomplish little."

Woven baskets characterized by a particular distinctive pattern have
previously been found only in the immediate vicinity of the prehistoric
village of Palea and therefore were believed to have been unique to the
Palean people. Recently, however, archaeologists discovered such a 'Palean'
basket in Lithos, an ancient village across the BrimRiver from Palea. The
BrimRiver is very deep and broad, and so the ancient Paleans could only have
crossed it by boat, but there is no evidence that the Paleans had boats. And
boats capable of carrying groups of people and cargo were not developed until
thousands of years after the Palean people disappeared. Moreover, Paleans
would have had no need to cross the river — the woods around Palea are full
of nuts, berries, and small game. It follows that the so-called Palean
baskets were not unique to Palea.
