Abstract
The first subsection is devoted to the definition of (ordinary) homology pro-groups H m (X;G) of an inverse system of spaces X. Their limits are the Čech homology groups \({\mathop H\limits^ \vee _m}\left( {X;G} \right).\) m (X;G). The higher derived limits limr H m ,(X; G) are also well defined. The second subsection is devoted to the construction of examples which show that, in general, these limits are non-trivial. This fact has important consequences for the strong homology groups, defined in sections 17 and 18.
