The Ship of Theseus is a fabled Athenian vessel that famously transported the city's youths to the island of Delos under the ownership of King Theseus after escaping the dreaded King Minos and slaying the minotaur.
The annual pilgrimage to Delos uses this same ship, but over time, it has to be repaired. If each individual piece was replaced, one at a time, would it still be the same Ship of Theseus?
