PRESERVATION STATUS & RESTORATION

PRESERVATION STATUS

Description

At time of excavation (1988) the geometric black and white mosaic was preserved on almost the whole surface of room 3 whit two extended lacunas in the southern and northern corner of the room and three small lacunas in the central part; in the southern corner of the room the bedding layers of the mosaic were cut in a rectangular segment. The mosaic floor shows evident deformation – the border part of the mosaic laying upon the wall foundations is clearly higher than the central part of the mosaic. At the last survey of the mosaic in 2010 there were documented new small lacunas deriving from detachment of tesserae. The mosaic surface is now protected by geotextile, expanded clay, sand and gravel
