Abstract:
Analysis of assemblages of marine molluscs, which demonstrate changes in the absolute abundance of the three dominant species, as well as changes of mean shell size and age-class frequencies in the species Monodonta lineata (da Costa), through the midden. Suggests that these changes result from the impact of human foraging on the populations of these molluscs and that rocky-shore intertidal molluscs were exploited intensively and frequently (possibly annually) from the site in the Early Mesolithic (c.6000--5200cal BC).
