South-eastern part of room 1

Description

Parts of the tessellatum are preserved only in the south-eastern part of room 1 (a 4,1 m wide and over 66 m long portico), which was only partially excavated and then re-covered, being outside the area of the archaeological park of Simonov zaliv (on the border of the orchard of house Tomažičeva ulica 11). In the north-western part of the very long portico, situated inside the archaeological park, the mosaic decoration was not conserved and there it remained only the statumen layer.
