Civilopedia entry[]

Boats have existed for millennia, and we have used them to access waters rich in fish since we first set out upon them. The settlement of Australia, Crete, and Flores suggest that humans have traveled to shores unreachable by foot for nearly 50,000 years. Protein traces from fish in human remains from 40,000 years ago (in present-day China) indicate we have been eating fish for nearly as long. Early fishing was performed with nets, baskets, harpoons (for larger fish), and even bone hooks – the legend of Maui and his fishhook indicates the importance of fishing for many societies. A fishing fleet is simply the intensification of these survival strategies, an adaptation of sea-going people to urbanization.
