In the beginning of The Lord of the Flies, William Golding depicts the conch as symbolism for order and civilization; however, as time goes on, the shell loses the power it once had over the boys and eventually has no meaning whatsoever.

The symbolism behind the conch shell is that it is a powerful symbol of democratic order on the island. It confirms Ralph’s leadership and the power of assembly among the group of boys. When assembled for a meeting whomever holds the conch shell has the power of speech and is to be listened to and respected. It is a symbol of civilization, order and power. As the conflict between Jack and Ralph increases Jack declares that the conch is meaningless and conch shell loses symbolic importance.…
