Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study is focused on historical geography and folklore of the relationship between local fish and humanity. Research target areas are Japanese Islands, Ryukyu Islands, Malta in the Mediterranean Sea.In this study,we found three patterns of the use of local fish.The next question remains as to why dolphinfish(Coryphaena hippurus)were auspicious during the Edo Period until the first half of the 20th century.In my opinion, the reason why dolphinfish became a cheap and low-class fish is possibly related to the development of preservation technology through the introduction of refrigerators, by which the widespread distribution of tuna and bonito fish became possible while dolphinfish became comparatively tainted. Through the analysis of relationships between fish and humans, we can observe historical preferences in fish consumption across space and time, noting how and why specific variables have come into play to structure subsistence patterns.
