The overarching hypothesis behind most archaeoichthyological research is finding explanations for the exploitation of fish as part of human behaviour and human interaction with aquatic environments. The reconstruction of the catching and consumption of fish as an additional protein source as well as reconstructing historic aquatic environments, is of major interest. The proceedings are especially focused on ichthyoarchaeological-related contexts, and the international contributions bring together current scientific standards and present new prehistoric data.
