An Experimental Approach on Pearl Shell (Pinctada margaritifera) for a Microwear Study of Shell Artefacts From French Polynesia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pinctada margaritifera (black‐lipped pearl oyster) artefacts are ubiquitous in the archaeological record throughout the Pacific and particularly in Polynesia. Despite efforts towards the development of typologies, the lack of microwear and use‐wear studies has prevented the development of technological approaches. We used 20 pearl shell valves

Morphological and Morphometric Characterisation of Selected Camarodont Sea Urchin (Echinoidea: Camarodonta) Pedicellariae (Paracentrotus lividus, Psammechinus miliaris and Echinus esculentus)

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pedicellariae are small appendages on the surface of the echinoid test, involved in defence, cleaning, and locomotion. Pedicellariae in three species of camarodont sea urchins common in UK waters (Paracentrotus lividus [Lamarck, 1816], Psammechinus miliaris [P.L.S Müller, 1771] and Echinus esculentus [Linnaeus, 1758]) are the focus of this ...
