Adopt your oyster today and support a bright future for our coast. THE GUIDE OYSTERN C SEASON Every oyster tells a small story. Its shell protects it from the harsh environment that it seeks to purify. Its taste reflects its surroundings. Its caretakers work hard to make it comfortable. Its health reflects our coast’s well-being. In calm seas and in hurricanes, an oyster is a tiny beacon of promise. Double duty: An adult oyster can filter 50 gallons of water each day and can live as long as 20 years. Most, however, will retire to our plates, pots, and grills long before then.

    This pdf of your paper in Molluscs in Archaeology belongs to the publishers Oxbow Books and it is their copyright. As author you are licenced to make up to 50 offprints from it, but beyond that you may not publish it on the World Wide Web until three years from publication (June 2020), unless the site is a limited access intranet (password protected). If you have queries about this please contact the editorial department at Oxbow Books ([email protected]). Molluscs in Archaeology Studying Scientific Archaeology Studying Scientific Archaeologyis a new series of titles from Oxbow Books. The series will produce books on a wide variety of scientific topics in archaeology aimed at students at all levels. These will examine the methods, procedures and reasoning behind various scientific approaches to archaeological data and present case studies or extended examples to demonstrate how data is used and interpretations are arrived at. In particular we aim that they should demonstrate how scientific analyses contribute to our wider understanding of past human behaviour, technology and economy. The series title reflects an inclusivity in the volumes in the sense of encouraging readers in practical research rather than just presenting collected papers as statements of work completed. Our aim is that these titles will come to feature as recommended reading for university courses, providing a sound basis for the appreciation and application of scientific archaeology.
