The prime and distinctive task of first philosophy is an inquiry into first entities; these, however, are not perceptible entities, and as a result they have to be investigated through a metaphysical investigation of physical entities.
On 'object': we assume a broad understanding of 'object' to encompass perceptible entities in mind-independent reality including material objects, but also features and other entities (e.g., events, quantities of stuff).
But it is also possible to blame the anticipated degeneration on sense-perception (see 546b2 3), not calculation, and to see in Kallipolis' demise a common fact of life for perceptible entities (546a2).
Wherever possible, they fundamentally lead by a conservationist attitude that preserves and enhances the city as a perceptible physical entity.
This augmented video is a self-contained entity integrating values of perceptible and non-perceptible attributes of the same real entity.

The usual appearance is single, septated or multiple fluid-like (−19 to 13 HU attenuation) collections, often with perceptible peripheral or septal enhancement, which cause more or less symmetric prostatic enlargement of variable entity (Figs. 4, 9 and 10).
This confirms that entities must be combined into larger groupings in order to be functional and perceptible, which has already been shown impossible.
Singular thoughts about concrete perceptible objects may seem simpler and more primitive than either general ones or thoughts about abstract entities.
