    In the Syrian city of Rastani, a huge ancient Roman mosaic with scenes from ancient mythology was discovered.

    The artifact is well preserved. This is the largest find in Syria over the past 11 years – since the start of the war in the country, writes CBS News.

    The mosaic was found on the floor of the ruins of a 4th-century building that was bought by Lebanese businessmen and given to the Syrian state. Archaeologists cannot yet say for sure what kind of building it was, perhaps public baths.

    Mosaic area – 120 sq. m. Probably, it also extends to areas that have not yet been cleared. The images are lined with square colored stones of 1.2 cm each.

    The drawing is very detailed – on the mosaic you can see scenes from ancient Greek and Roman mythology. There are scenes from the Trojan War, images of Hercules, the Amazons, Neptune and 40 of his mistresses.

    Before us is a discovery that is rare on a global scale, said Humam Saad, a spokesman for the Syrian General Directorate of Antiquities and Museums.

    According to him, Rastan is a historically significant city, but it was not excavated before the war.
