It was their principal source of non-vegetable protein. The country was poor and farms very limited in size, with little scope for grazing animals other than ploughing oxen, obviously not for eating, with some chickens on the side. The sea and rivers gave far greater scope, and most Greek cities were built near the water.

For one thing, the Greeks liked fish. It was a favorite food for many. They ate other types of meat too, but fish were easy to get. Since Greece is made up of many islands surrounded by water, this made catching fish an easy way to obtain food.

Firstly because they were a source of food. They are pleasant to eat for many people. The plants that fruit grows on especially trees are hardy and reliable and can keep supplying food for many years.

Eating fish was common in ancient greek cuisine but mainly in coastal cities. It was sometimes sold fresh but most of the time salted.
