Fig. 5: Taxa distribution according to fishing gear.

Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA) based on the number of paintings in which taxa were identified according to fishing gear (bottom trawling, hand collection, hunting, line fishing, netting, fish pots) and grouped according to the studied time-periods in a Inland, b Adriatic and c Liguro-Tyrrhenian paintings. Percentages on the axes indicate percentages of inertia explained by each MCA dimension. Confidence ellipses are represented (90%) as well as the mean point of each time-period (diamonds).
