Quantifying spatial variability in shell midden formation in the Farasan Islands, Saudi Arabia

Fig 5

Post-shore shell scatter in the Janaba East cluster associated with Transect 3.

The site appears to be a low mound with a deflated shell scatter on the surface and coral blocks representing the remains of structures but has not been excavated or dated. Photograph taken facing West, shell mounds along palaeoshorelines are clearly visible in the distance. To the right is the shell scatter of JE5641, identifiable by the patch of red material, which is the spoil heap from the trench excavated into this deposit. Photo by Geoff Bailey, February 2013.
