In Christian iconography, the scallop is the attribute of James the Greater. The shell owes its name to this.
The shell is the emblem of the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela (Santiago means Saint Jacob) and is generally a symbol for pilgrims. They brought this shell as proof of the completion of their pilgrimage . The visible wearing of the scallop shell, sewn on the hat or on the jacket, provided protection against robbers, who left the wearers of an honor code alone.
