Is Suzy saw seashells on the seashore alliteration or onomatopoeia?

This sentence demonstrates alliteration.

* Alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sound at the beginning of words that are close together (in this case, the "s" sound in "Suzy," "saw," "seashells," and "seashore").

* Onomatopoeia is the use of words that imitate the sounds they represent (like "buzz," "hiss," or "meow").
