Yep. No mussell shells of any type.
His equipment consisted of:
An axe - carefully smoothed elbow-shaped yew-wood haft approximately 60 cm long. The axe blade is 99.7% copper
A dagger - a small triangular flint blade and an ash wood handle. Its triangular sheath-like scabbard is made of bast. A leather eyelet on the side presumably allowed the sheath to be attached to the belt, so that the dagger could always be drawn easily.
A retoucher - made of a piece of stripped lime-tree branch and stag-antler splinter insert. The tool was used for the precision work in the production of the flint implements which the Iceman carried in his belt pouch.
A backpack - a nearly 2 m long hazel rod bent into a U-shape and two narrow wooden slats. The overall find indicates that the pieces of wood form the frame of a backpack. Numerous bits of hide and clumps of hair suggest that a leather bag was fastened onto the carrying frame.
A net - a rough mesh was made of lengths of grass and the net was probably used to catch birds although nets were also likely used for taking small land prey like Hares
2 birch bark containers - In one of the two containers were maple leaves and, embedded in these, spruce and juniper needles as well as charcoal fragments. This proves that the Iceman always carried the embers from his last fire with him on his way up into the high mountains.
A quiver - a rectangular, elongated chamois hide bag with a hazel reinforcement.
It contained two arrows ready for shooting and twelve unfinished shafts. The two finished arrows have flint heads embedded in their notch, glued with birch tar and bound on with string.
The remains of a three-part radial fletching made of feathers which had been fixed with birch tar and a fine thread were also preserved. In the quiver were also four tips of stag-antlers tied together, two animal sinews and a string made of vegetable fibres wound into a ball. The string must have been up to 2 m long and could have been the string of the bow.
A bow shaft - 1.82 m long bow-stave made of yew-wood . The bow bears signs of being worked on and is clearly an unfinished, not yet functional piece. Neither the grip nor the necessary elements at the bow ends to attach the loops of the string are present. As we all know courtesy of Chris Boynton it's made of the poorest part of a yew tree.
A tassel with a pierced stone disc on - the disc has a hole through the middle and is threaded onto a leather thong. This holds together a bundle of strips twisted into a spiral that together form a sort of tassel. This was likely used for clothing repairs.
Polypores - two strips of hide onto which two round fragments with a hole in the middle were strung.
Tests have shown that they were birch polypore -Interestingly scientists have focused on the medicinal qualities of polypore rather than additional uses that the bushcraft fraternity are aware of - such as as a strop and coal extender.
A pouch on a belt - formed from a piece of sewn-on leather. The little pouch contained five items including a scraper, a drill, a flint flake and a bone awl.
A black mass that was identified as a variety of tinder plants and fungi filled most of the bag. (n.b. I find quite a bit of dispute over the make up of the plant and fungi material - the museum where his remains are calls it Touchwood)
There's also his clothing and the flint arrowhead found in his body probably doesn't count as part of his kit
