0322308McGovernThis is a Dissertation Proposal by Dr. Thomas McGovern for Ragnar Edvardsson, CUNY Hunter College, to do ethnohistoric and archaeological research on Northwestern Icelandic fishing sites from the Medieval period. The proposed research will shed light on a very important period in Icelandic history, the development of commercial fisheries. Utilizing data from the archaeological record the PI hypothesizes a more dynamic interaction between society and nature than previously described in Iceland from analyses of the historic record alone. This research potentially could provide deeper insight into 13th century societal influences on fish stocks that could have implications for contemporary fisheries management worldwide.

这是Thomas McGovern博士为纽约市大亨特学院Ragnar Edvardsson撰写的论文提案，目的是对冰岛西北部中世纪时期的渔业遗址进行民族历史和考古研究。拟议的研究将阐明冰岛历史上一个非常重要的时期，即商业渔业的发展。利用考古记录的数据，PI假设社会与自然之间的互动比以前仅从历史记录的分析中描述的冰岛更动态。这项研究可能会更深入地了解13世纪社会对鱼类资源的影响，这可能会对当代全球渔业管理产生影响。
