OK, now I'm starting to doubt... is it Palaeo or paleo?? Always thought it was palaeo.
- There's a straightforward answer to this - paleo is the American spelling, palaeo the English. I prefer the English option, because I am (English), that's how I was taught, and I think (bit rusty here) it's more accurate given the classical etymology. However, I've noticed that aeos get edited to eos anyway (I guess the majority of Wikipedians are from the US?), so would tend to let it go.... The Wikipedia:Contributing FAQ suggests consistency is most important here. NickW 21:58, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)
