MOSAIC FLOORS OF MENANDERS HOUSE
Mosaic floors of the so-called "Menander's house", with a portrait of Menander, a protome of the Muse Thaleia and scenes from the poet's comedies. The theatrical masks, the representation of fishing and the scene of Orpheus taming the wild animals complete the image of the richly decorated house, which dates to the second half of the 3rd century A.D.
