I'm taking a brief look into Shell Middens, Native American trash piles around Galveston bay. These middens took hundreds or thousands of years to accumulate. Let's scratch the surface to understand the shell middens, oysters, and coastal ecology that provide insight into the daily lives of these native tribes. Discover how shell middens offer a glimpse into the past and how they were inadvertently integrated into Galveston's roads.
