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 made only by the Palean people. Recently, however, archaeologists discovered such a "Palean" basket in Lithos, an ancient village across the Brim River from Palea. The Brim River is very deep and broad, and so the ancient Paleans could have crossed it only by boat, and no Palean boats have been found. Thus it follows that the so-called Palean baskets were not uniquely Palean.

The evidences presented in this argument seem to be enough for the conclusion that the palean baskets were not unique to Palea; however, there are other possibilities which the author fail to consider and need to be cited to strengthen the inference.

The most important thing which should to be specified is that if the Palean basket, founded in Lithos, has been there from long time ago. It is possible that thousands of years later, when the boats where developed, someone has taken it to the Lithos and it has been there since then. Thus, it is important to be clarified that the Woven baskets has been there since the old Palean people era. Also, the argument says that “archaeologists discovered such a “Palean” basket in Lithos.” Does it mean that the baskets are original historical remains? Perhaps they are modern woven baskets with the characteristic texture and pattern of old Palean baskets. Moreover, we know that there is a wide and deep river which separate Palea and Lithos, but we are not sure that this river has been in their era. Even if we know that there river is as old as Palean people era, What is the evidences to prove that it has been as wide and deep as now? The river may have broadened and deepened through these years. In that case any body may have taken the Woven baskets across the sallow river of that time. Finaly, it is not impossible that a light object like woven basket has been traveled across the river by itself. If someone throw such basket to the river, it is possible that the basket be trapped in other side of the river, at downstream. In sum, if the above possibilities have been considered, they should be cited in order to convince the reader that the Palean baskets were not really unique to the village of Palea.
