The shapefile format (as you can read in the ESRI technical description
already linked by Nicolas Cadieux) supports only the following base "shape
types" (excluding Null Shape, Multipatch and Z and M variants) called:

- Point
- MultiPoint
- PolyLine
- Polygon

The "Point" type only stores single-part geometries, while MultiPoint,
PolyLine and Polygon types can store multi-part geometries.

Best regards.
