The role of seasonality is indisputable in climate and ecosystem dynamics. Seasonal
temperature and precipitation variability are of vital importance for the availability of food …

Records of past environmental conditions in shell carbonate are usually derived from
compositional analysis (ie trace elements, stable oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen isotopes) …

During the past decade, over 3000 shell middens or shell matrix deposits have been
discovered on the Farasan Islands in the southern Red Sea, dating to the period c. 7,360 to …

Here we present the results of the analysis of coastal exploitation patterns in the southern
Red Sea during the Middle Holocene. We focus on the shell midden cluster of the Farasan …

The marine gastropod Conomurex luhuanus is a common component of Holocene
archaeological shell deposits in the Western Indo-Pacific region. Oxygen isotope ratios …

Intertidal environments have been the main source for mollusc gathering and consumption
for at least the last 164,000 years. However, our knowledge of long-term trends is …

Shell middens are often analysed as the result of short-or long-term depositional activities. In
order to confidently interpret such deposits, it is necessary to have accurate estimations of …

We use a sedimentological approach to examine the formation and deformation processes
associated with the accumulation of shell deposits in two major clusters of shell mounds, the …
