Shell middens
Apr 20, 2004, 09:47
Francis Pryor speculates that Mesolithic shell middens such as the one found at Morton in Fife could have been monuments in themselves.
The Morton Midden was composed of some ten million shells, it was carefuly positioned to be out of reach of storms & tides and people took pains to see that the mound grew every season
