Yet, geological history is built up of a few, simple elements when compared to human history. There can be no doubt that the human mind is the most highly complicated phenomenon that exists under the sun, and hence the one that creates more individually different combinations than anything else on earth. The fact that we are all dissimilar depends ultimately on the fact that we are constituted by so many different variable factors in combination, that each such individual combination carries an enormously small probability of occurring.
The structure of a statistical population can be foreseen by such a calculation. If, on the contrary, our interest does not lie in what can be observed in large series, but something individual - that is, if we are interested primarily in its individual features and not only in a case illustrating a rule - then we have to face a very different situation. The winding coast of Europe, for instance, has been shaped through action of basically the same physical laws that governed the creation of the straight, steep African coastlines, although in a different combination of variables.
It might sound slightly shocking to define historical science as research on sources, the science of the remainders of the past. A statement of this kind would meet much less opposition in archaeology, ethnography and art history, or even 23 The sources in history of literature and religious history. The reason is obviously that, in these disciplines, the sources are also museum objects attracting considerable interest for their own sake. The peculiar thing about political history - and some modern specialized disciplines such as economic history - is that the aim of its research is not, usually, knowledge about the sources but almost entirely knowledge about the past itself, that which underlies the existence of the sources.
