Fishbourne Roman Palace’s Cupid on a Dolphin mosaic, mid 2ndC CE. Saved from plough damage due to subsiding pits dug before the villa was built. Depicts Cupid, holding a trident and riding on a dolphin alongside mythical sea creatures #fishbourne #fishbourneromanpalace #roman #romans #romanbritain

Fishbourne Roman Palace’s Medusa mosaic, which was laid in the early 2ndC CE directly on top of an earlier black and white box and key mosaic, which can be seen in places where the later mosaic is damaged #fishbourneromanpalace #fishbourne #roman #romans #romanbritain

Fascinating to explore Fishbourne Roman Palace, built 1stC CE & one of the grandest Roman residences ever found in Britain. It was excavated in the 1960s following a chance discovery when workmen were digging a trench for a water pipe #fishbourne #romanbritain #romans #roman #fishbourneromanpalace

Square and diamond pattern mosaic from Fishbourne Roman Palace in East Sussex. The mosaic dates from AD75 to 80 when the palace was first built. 📷 My own. #MosaicMonday #RomanBritain #FishbourneRomanPalace
