Conch

Coastal ancestors often gathered conches (historically called puying) for food. Ancient herbals record that the conch's operculum, known as "Shell Fragrance," enhances other incenses when burned together, yet smells foul on its own. In traditional medicine, it is used to soothe chest and abdominal pain, ease breathing, and treat digestive ailments.
