Norfish: English North-East Atlantic cod fishery, 1520-1790 Citable as data publication Holm, P. and Nicholls, J. 2021. Norfish: English North East Atlantic Cod Fishery 1520-1790.

The project examines the role of the Fish Revolution for a range of inter-related aspects of North Atlantic history, with NorFish’s interdisciplinary team drawing on archaeology, history, cartography, geography, and ecology to develop interpretative frameworks that synthesise a broad spectrum of source data to assess the overall objective of the project. NorFish’s interdisciplinary team draws on archaeology, history, cartography, geography, and ecology to assess the objectives of the project. more The importance of the English cod fishery in the North East Atlantic is perhaps overlooked in the light of the Newfoundland cod fishery. However, particularly in the 15th and the early 16th century, it was an important industry for England.
