Excerpt from The Archaeological Use and Distribution of Mollusca in the Maya Lowlands

I have attempted to establish original provenience of the specimens for clues to early trade. Under each listing is a reference to any new or published knowl edge regarding use and association, as well as age of the deposits in which the specimens were found. Comparison with the Yucatan material may be made with reported marine life forms frorri-the southern Maya lowlands, including the British Honduras and Peten sites and Copan, but only with items of um usual interest from farther afield. Some species have not been reported archaeologically from Yucatan, but have appeared at other lowland sites and are common in coastal waters of the peninsula.
