 Another problem posed in the same year by Knaster, on the existence of an uncountable collection of dendroids with the property that no dendroid in the collection has a continuous surjection onto any other dendroid in the collection, was solved by and , who gave an example of such a family.A locally connected dendroid is called a dendrite.A cone over the Cantor set (called a Cantor fan) is an example of a dendroid that is not a dendrite.
