Palean From Lithos Analysis

One of the most important assumption is the idea that the Brim River, which separates Palean from Lithos, was a huge barrier to take woven baskets to other places. It is not clear whether this observation is based on either how the river is in these day or how the river used to be. One might wonder if the river was less deep and dangerous in the past due to in other ages the whether could benefit the native to cross the river without using boats. Extreme cold or highest degrees of hot weather could allow Palean people to go over the river. In the former case, walking over the ice and in the latter case, the river could even not exist.

Clearly, more evidence is needed to addressed the question about the origin of the woven baskets found outside Palean. It is not clear whether the river was always as harmful as it is today and the possible of creating other bulding such as bridges. In addition, the relationship between Palean people and citizens of Lithos is not fully explained and also the level of technology generated in this
