I agree with both answers as provided above.
Has anyone stopped to wonder why Golding provides "St. Anthony's" as the name of the school Percival attended?
I think this may have some symbolic importance to the story as well, though I am definately not an expert.
If you were to do a search for Saint Anthony, you may find that he is a patron saint for of many things, including epilepsy.
In works of art, St Anthony is usually portrayed with 4 symbols: Tau, a bell, a pig, and fire or flames.
