Ralph discovered the conch. Piggy explained what it was.

Ralph had stopped smiling and was pointing into the lagoon. Something creamy lay among the ferny weeds.
"A stone."
"No. A shell."
Suddenly Piggy was a-bubble with decorous excitement.
"S'right. It's a shell! I seen one like that before. On someone's back wall. A conch he called it. He used to blow it and then his mum would come. It's ever so valuable--"
