Shells of terrestrial snails, mainly of the genus ''Megalobulimus'', are found in fluvial [[shellmound]] (called ''sambaqui'' in Brazil) on the [[Capelinha]] [[archaeological site]] from [[
The shell of ''Megalobulimus'' sp. (local name: "churito") is used in the traditional [[ethnomedicine]] of Northwest [[Argentina]] when babies are hyperactive and cannot sleep well, then it is advised to put a shell under a pillow.<ref>Hilgert N.
