Abstract

Several historians of ancient Egypt have concluded that fisheries were of major importance and that fish was predominantly present in the diet of Egyptians. The conclusion is built on the assumption that cattle and pasture land were scarce, while water bodies were abundant. The physical environment of Egypt, therefore, undoubtedly contributed to the development of an efficient fishing industry.
