Summary/Abstract: The study aims to analyze the differences in the commodification of bluefin tuna by examining examples of how it has been valued by people in both ancient and modern times. The first aspect addresses the process of anthropomorphism. In ancient art, the attribution of human characteristics and behaviors to tuna influenced how they were perceived and valued. The second aspect of commodification examined in the article is the modern mass consumption of tuna, which diminishes its worth compared to the appreciation of its culinary qualities in the ancient world.
