While fishing was a part of the Minoan economy, their wealth primarily stemmed from maritime trade, agriculture, and craftsmanship. The Minoans excelled in trade across the Mediterranean, exporting goods like pottery, textiles, and metalwork. Their access to fertile land and advanced agricultural practices also contributed significantly to their prosperity. Thus, fishing was important but not the main source of their wealth.
