Summary

Description
English: Spontaneous Generation of Seashells, according to Aristotle, varied with the nature of the seabed. Slime gave rise to oysters; Sand, to scallops; and the Hollows of rocks, to limpets and barnacles. People kept on wondering, though, whether the eggs of these animals might not be central to the generation process.
