    Abstract
    An onshore excavation was undertaken in Bet Dwarka Island, Gujarat, India to obtain the cultural sequence and to understand the man-sea relationship. A large number of pottery items, beads of stone, shell and terracotta were found, besides copper artifacts. The recovered copper artifacts are coins, finger- and ear-rings and a well-preserved fish-hook. The present communication deals with the latter recovered from trench BDK-VI, located on the northern part of the island. Detailed discussions of its dating and a comparative study have been made here.
