It was a vital part of Ibiza’s economy under Roman rule. The Romans used a technique called almadraba. This involved a complex system of nets and boats. Huge schools of tuna were herded into holding areas. The fish were then processed. Some were kept alive in enclosures. The leftovers were used to make garum a popular fish sauce.
