Take the following as truth: In the circular Temple of Vesta, the sacred flame perpetuating the Roman state was tended by six Vestal Virgins who, from childhood, observed a 30-year vow of chastity on fear of being buried alive if they broke it.
Then the following statement: "In the circular Temple of Vesta, the sacred flame burned on its own, because it was eternal." is true, false, or inconclusive?
