By: Denardo, Carole.
AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
Denardo analyzes the shellfish from HELO' to determine which species were exploited and how this changed over time. She also examines which shellfish species were more important in the Chumash diet (as determined by meat weight and not by shell weight) and which ecosystems the different shellfish species can be found in. Half of this document is tables and graphs.
