Assesment of Arguement essay based on ETS GRE scoring rubrics

[Rittik]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I shall be thankful if anybody could evaluate my argument essay sample, which I prepared within the stipulated time of 30 minutes on the topic of discussion - 

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.

Write a response in which you discuss what specific evidence is needed to evaluate the argument and explain how the evidence would weaken or strengthen the argument.
 

Thanking you,

Rittik kumar Ghosh.
