Resumen
Small-scale fisheries contribute to food security and poverty eradication by providing food, income
and employment for millions of people. However, among some problems, the sector suffers from
declining biological resources and degraded aquatic habitats, impacting coastal and small-scale fishers
who depend on local and regional ecosystems to derive their subsistence. Based on the concept of
Shifting Baselines Syndrome, there are no adequate reference points for analysis of changes in fish
composition, as subsidies for adequate management of fishery. Therefore, it is necessary to study
historical and archaeological data with the objective of identifying change and spatial-temporal
evolution of the species (e.g. overfishing). This study aimed to describe the ichthyofauna diversity in
Brazilian pre-Columbian and to contribute to the development of ecological references, from the
identification and measurement of faunistic remains in archaeological sites in Babitonga Bay for the
purpose of comparison with information about the fisheries in the Brazilian coast.
