Abstract

The present authors set forward new arguments favoring the existence of aquaculture as a branch of producing economy in the Northern Pacific 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 firmly established fact. © 2010, Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, Institute of Archaeology & Ethnography of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
