A seashell or sea shell, also known simply as a shell, is a hard, protective outer layer created by an animal that lives in the sea.

Empty seashells are often found washed up on beaches by beachcombers.

The shells are empty because the animal has died and the soft parts have been eaten by another animal or have rotted out.

A mermaid is a legendary aquatic creature with the head and upper body of a female human and the tail of a fish.

Mermaids appear in the folklore of many cultures worldwide, including the Near East, Europe, Africa and Asia.

Mermaids are sometimes associated with perilous events such as floods, storms, shipwrecks and drownings.

In other folk traditions (or sometimes within the same tradition), they can be benevolent or beneficent, bestowing boons or falling in love with humans.
