Abstract: The historical geography of sea uses is outlined as a sequence of stages of developent. The resulting geographical patterns are discussed in terms of the major sea use groups involved, including reference to urban and rural sea use categories. Source materials for the historical geography of the sea are considered, followed by evaluation of major factors involved, including in particular the roles of technological, economic and environmental considerations.
