Abstract

A total of 27 malacological remains were retrieved from the excavation within the French Hospital Compound, including common marine shells from the Mediterranean Sea. The finds were uncovered within loci dated to the Late Roman and Abbasid periods. Some of the shells from the Late Roman period might have been used as ornaments, while most of them were probably consumed as food.
