With Christmas decorations in mind on this #MosaicMonday, a colourful geometric mosaic with lozenge stars, guilloche knots and swastika-peltae. Found in 1738 at Great Weldon. Detail from Samuel Lysons, Reliquiae Britannico-Romanae (1813-1817), pl. VII.

Floor mosaics in a luxurious second century AD townhouse in #Italica, Santaponce, near Seville, Spain.
Italica was lavishly expanded during the reign of Emperor Hadrian (emperor AD 117-138). He was born there on 24th January AD 76. Emperor Trajan also came from Italica.

For #MosaicMonday a lost mosaic masterpiece from Micklegate Bar #York

Found in 1814, the floor was protected by a shed but destroyed by overeager visitors 😱

This engraving by William Fowler in 1815 is the only record we have

The weird *swirly things* may have been dolphins (or the 4 seasons? 🤔
