Fishing tools and implements from the layers of the Roman-period port in Zaton near Nin

Sažetak

The Roman-period port in Zaton was discovered in the mid-1960s, but systematic excavations have been going on there since 2002. During these 50 years, the excavations have been conducted at intervals. Every campaign yielded ample and varied material from the regions stretching from Hispania to Eastern Mediterra­nean. This paper presents 78 objects directly or indirectly associ­ated with fishing. Literature has not paid much attention to the archaeological remains of fishing tools and implements; it does not consider them particularly “interesting” because they have not changed much throughout the history and – unless found in some archaeological context – they are very often difficult to date. Of the fishing tools and implements found in the Roman-period port in Zaton, we have singled out here hooks, fish spears, fishing net weights and netting needles.
