There is some additional info in the 1911 Britannica in the "Shell-heaps" article: http://2.1911encyclopedia.org/S/SH/SHELL_HEAPS.htm if anyone is interested in integrating that info. --DanielCD 29 June 2005 16:27 (UTC)
[edit] Shellmounds in San Mateo County
The Californian Aboriginals known (incorrectly) as Oholone, or Costanos, is a topic of my article for December or earlier. Currently too many irons on the fire. In any case, I plan on using the UCB papers by Nelson(1909) and Cook(1946). Any comments or more current information welcome. meatclerk 08:45, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
I took the reference in EXAMPLE of many Australian shell middens being over 40,000 years old. I think this incorrectly refers to Mungo Man remains found in a central desert area of NSW which was carbon dated to this antiquity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.7.166.180 (talk) 21:54, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
