Art in shell of the ancient Americans.

Abstract

The student will find scattered throughout a wide range of archeologic literature frequent but casual mention of works of art in shell.Individual uses of shell have been dwelt upon at considerable length by a few authors, but up to this time no one has undertaken the task of bringing together in one view the works of primitive man in this material.Works of ancient peoples in stone, clay, and bronze, in all countries, have been pretty thoroughly studied, described, and illustrated.
