Oyster Cultivation and Archaeology as Producing Activities
Oyster Cultivation and Archaeology as Producing Activities
V.A. Rakov and D.L. Brodianski.
The present authors set forward new arguments favoring the existence of aquaculture as a branch of producing economy in the Northern Pacifi c region. Having examined the shell middens of several coastal Neolithic and Early Iron Age sites as well as ancient and modern oyster farms, the authors conclude that the existence of incipient oyster cultivation on the coast of Peter the Great Bay can be considered a fi rmly established fact.
