Summary/Abstract: The post-conference volume presents works in the field of ancient hunting. The texts published in it contain information on hunting ethics and references to animal studies. The majority of chapters deal with hunting in antiquity. The texts of Plato, Nemezjan, Arrian or Luxorious were used for the analysis. There are also references to the literature of later centuries: ”Dziady” written by Adam Mickiewicz or translations of Latin hunting treatises prepared by Bruno Kiciński. Preserved time chronology allows to follow the scope of changes which took place in hunting methods and an overall assessment of hunting over the centuries.
