The purpose of the paper is to initiate the development of the theory of Newton Okounkov bodies of curve classes. Our denition is based on making a fundamental property of NewtonOkounkov bodies hold also in the curve case: the volume of the NewtonOkounkov body of a curve is a volume-type function of the original curve. This construction allows us to conjecture a new relation between NewtonOkounkov bodies, we prove it in certain cases.
