2013 Big Adventure
Delos - P.58
The House of Dionysus. The middle of the mosaic portrays Dionysus with outstretched wings and ivy wreath mounted on a panther with a wreath of vine branches and grapes around its neck. In his right hand he's holding a staff crowned with ivy. On the ground there's a wine vessel. |
This room was used for reception and entertainment of guests. |
It was hard to get a good shot of the middle of the mosaic. |
|
This whole section is called the "Theater Quarter." |
|
The House of the Trident. |
The House of the Trident was gated off but this mosaic floor was just inside the gate. |
