Ref. 40401 COS

Dimensions mm 200x190

Pieces 1170

Since it was founded in 336 B.C. Cos was a city closely linked to the commercial trade between Greece and the Black Sea, as well as Rhodes and the south-east coast of the Mediterranean. Historiographic and archaeological testimonies speak of a dynamic and fruitful past, interrupted on several occasions by seismic catastrophes. Precisely the rubble caused by these earthquakes helped to especially conserve the mosaics on the flooring. Ref. 40401 COS reproduces the fragment of a mosaic of naturalist theme found in a Roman building from the port area.

Dimensions mm 220x285

Pieces 2010

References 40404 and 40405 reproduce fragments of the mosaic situated in the apse of the Church of Sant Pere d'Egara, in Terrassa. Elements such as this mosaic, with an extremely Roman appearance, cast doubt on the chronology of the group of churches of Sant Pere of Visigothic-preRomanesque origin and consolidation around the 12th century. This subject has been debated for many years.

The history of the Roman villa of Centcelles, near the Roman capital Tarraco, is an example of the evolution of urban life to the rural environment starting in the 3rd century A.D., in spite of its more remote origins.

The detail represented by Ref. 40406 CENTCELLES reproduces a fragment of the Biblical scene of Daniel in the lion's den.
