  • C offsets in marine limpets

    Open Access•Kerry R Allen, Darren A Fa•ARTICLE•Radiocarbon•2026•References: 48

    The suitability of marine limpet shells for radiocarbon dating may depend on potential offsets due to diet and habitat, especially with regard to grazing mollusks on carbonate substrates (Dye 1994; England et al. 2013). A previous study on one grazing limpet species on the coast of Ireland found no offsets from carbonate substrates (Allen et al. 2019), but a similar study from mediterranean coasts found significant offsets on carbonate substrates…

  • New Evidence for Late Glacial Shellfishing Seasonality and Coastal Environments in Atlantic Europe from Shell δ 18 O values

    A Marchán-Fernández, Asier García-Escárzaga et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Archaeology•2025•References: 33

    [EN] In recent decades, the role of marine resources in prehistoric hunter-gatherer diets has been widely debated. While some scholars propose that shellfish served as an emergency food supply during resource scarcity, others highlight their broader nutritional benefits. This paper applies δ18O analyses to Patella vulgata Linnaeus, 1758 shells from Cuevona de Ardines and El Cierro caves (Asturias, Spain) to determine seasonal patterns in shellfis…
