Abstract
⺠Glycymeris shells are adequate for AAR dating of raised coastal deposits. ⺠The distribution of the organic matrix within the shells calls for standardized sampling. ⺠Variability and time-averaging doesn't allow discrimination among MIS substages in Mediterranean deposits. ⺠Mineral diagenesis does not strongly affect the amino acid content or mineralogy of Glycymeris. ⺠Large sample sets are not only desirable but necessary.
