Also abalone, sea ear, Venus ear and donkey macaw. Univalve edible sea snail whose shell, very showy and pearly inside, has been since time very appreciated. I recently read some comments by Carl Sagan, the astrophysicist who opened the doors of the universe to us, about the death of Hypatia, the philosopher and mathematician of Alexandria. She said that fanatical Christians followers of Cyril of Alexandria would have dismembered and cracked her with abalone and oyster shells. Deliver us God, Allah or whoever is from your fanatics.
