SiteComments: 

The exact size of the thin shell scatter is difficult to establish because of the dense vegetation, but shell fragments are spread over a large area pushed to the surface by dune moles. The shell scatter comprised of shellfish remains mainly of Donax serra, Scutellastra longicosta and Turbo sarmaticus. The shell remains indicate that the nearby sandy beach and rocky coast (a kilometre south), were visited to collect shellfish. No other food remains or cultural materials were observed and the origin of the site is unknown.
