description | The excavations held in Kamkoutis’ field in the city of Velvento, near Kozani, Greece so far have revealed a villa dated in the early Byzantine period. Three of the villa’s rooms are covered with mosaic floors. The mosaicists share the common repertory. Floral and vegetal elements are predominant, while animal and mythological scenes are excluded. The good workmanship of the floor makes this discovery of considerable interest. |
