...the water in which the shells (made of calcium carbonate, CaCO 3 ) are precipitated, and the amount of water that has been extracted from the ocean and locked up in polar ice. In regions where the temperature changes little between interglacial and glacial periods (such as the western equatorial Pacific), the δ 18 O of shells precipitated in surface waters mainly reflects the ice effect—including any changes in the isotopic composition of the ice—since buildup of ice increases the ratio of 18 O to 16 O. In cores from such areas, shells with an 18 O/ 16 O...

...between Denmark and Sweden, flint artifacts have been recovered in shallower water and dated to 6400 bce . Along the coast of Brazil between Rio de Janeiro and Rio Grande do Sul are thousands of shell middens reaching up to 25 meters in height and containing a record of changing sea levels for the past 6,000 years. In South Carolina, the oldest shell middens (4,200–3,300 years bp ) occur near the mouths of estuaries, whereas the younger ones (3,300–1,000 bp ) occur further landward and up estuary, implying a response by prehistoric folk to a rising sea...
