}}{{nihongo|Nagane Shell Midden|長根貝塚|Nagane Kaizuka}} is a Jōmon period archaeological site consisting of a shell midden and the remains of an adjacent settlement located in what is now the town of Wakuya, Tōda District, Miyagi Prefecture in the Tōhoku region of northern Japan. It is protected by the central government as a National Historic Site.[1]

The rocky ria coast of Miyagi Prefecture was densely settled from the early through late Jōmon period, and the locations of such coastal settlements are often marked by shell middens containing shellfish, fish, animal and whale bones and human-produced artifacts, including earthenware shards, fishing hooks, etc.

The Nagane Shell Midden is located in an inland location at an elevation of approximately thirteen meters; however was found to contain many shells from mollusks native to brackish water in its lower layers and shells from freshwater mollusks and fish in its upper layers, indicating that the coastline in the region has receded. Aside from shellfish, the midden also contained the bones of deer and wild boar, and waterbirds including swans, geese and ducks. Other artifacts found in the 1968 excavation included pottery, stone implements, and vessels made from bone or horn. In addition, the foundations of two pit dwellings were uncovered.

The midden is very large, extending for 300 meters east-west and 250 meters north-south in a “U”-shape, and spans the end of the early Jōmon period through the late Jōmon period (i.e. 6000 to 2300 years ago). It is the largest shell midden in Miyagi Prefecture.
