Excerpt from Shells as Evidence of the Migration of Early Culture

This book represents nothing more than the informa tion garnered in this preliminary survey; and no one recognises its incompleteness more than its author. But I have urged Mr. Jackson to make these results more generally accessible by collecting them into a book, because they reveal the richness and the importance Of this branch of ethnography. It is hoped that by appealing to the interest of conchologists and ethnologists it will stimulate some of them to join in the search for further evidence and assist in collecting and sifting the material for an exhaustive treatise.

The numerous letters which Mr. Jackson has received from all parts of the world since he began the publication of his reports suggests that the interest in this line of investigation is real and widespread and that the wider distribution of this collection of essays will achieve the end he has In View.
