Why is it that we get so affected by symbolism like that? Is it just because telling stories is such a big part of our culture, or is it something deeper, more physiological than that? Does anyone know of a good book that can shine more light on humanity's strange relationship to symbols?

- Delmania 9y agoI didn't really read any symbolism into this. I think it's more that it was a great mystery. The island is so out of the way the presence of a derelict lifeboat is going to intrigue people and motivate them to figure who was there, when they were there, and what they were doing.
