Mosaics in Paphos, Cyprus

Near the harbor in Paphos are the remains of four large villas built between the 3rd to 5th Century. It is believed that members of the Roman ruling class and the wealthiest of Paphos lived in these villas, each consisting of over 100 rooms. The floor in each room is a unique and ornate mosaic depicting Greek Mythology or geometric design. Each one is a piece of art. Our pictures do not do them justice.
