An example of a fishing technique from Sweden in the early 20th century. Fishermen deploying a handheld stake or drift net into a small river, effectively blocking all fish, is ecologically damaging. Described in secondary literature as an illegal fishing method. #coastalhistory #muSEAum

Depictions of #fishweirs in art and maps across periods reflect their role in the physical and cultural landscape, as well as their economic value. They serve as both a tangible and abstract representation of human interaction with the ocean. #coastalhistory #muSEAum
