Produktbeschreibung

"Old Maritime Rules" masterfully explores the fascinating evolution of maritime laws and practices from ancient civilizations to their lasting impact on modern seafaring. The book reveals how the Phoenicians, as master sailors of the Mediterranean, established the first documented system of maritime protocols around 1200 BCE, creating foundational practices for navigation signals, weather prediction, and cargo handling that would influence centuries of maritime development.
Through meticulous analysis of archaeological evidence, translated documents, and maritime artifacts, the book traces how these early maritime codes spread and evolved across different seafaring cultures. The narrative progresses from Phoenician innovations through Greek and Roman adaptations, culminating in the sophisticated Viking sea-laws that introduced advanced navigation techniques for northern waters.
The author skillfully demonstrates how these ancient practices form the bedrock of contemporary international maritime law, supporting this connection with evidence from recovered ship logs, trading documents, and harbor regulations. The book stands out for its comprehensive integration of multiple disciplines, combining maritime archaeology, trade history, and modern naval operations to create a complete picture of ancient seafaring regulations.
Using newly translated maritime documents and recent archaeological discoveries, it challenges previous assumptions about ancient maritime capabilities while providing practical insights for modern maritime operations. This approach makes the complex subject matter accessible to both scholars and general readers interested in the fascinating intersection of ancient history and modern maritime practices.
