| Abstract |
It is pointed out that the human tradition of eating shellfish goes back to the time when Homo sapiens first started to migrate out of Africa, between 200,000 and 100,000 years ago. Archaeological finds of ancient meals of shellfish and ancient middens of shellfish shells track human migrations around the world. Middens do more than track migrations. They show that wooden artefacts and plant residues do not survive, but shells do. |
