(New York Times) Karen Rosenberg - In 1996 construction workers widening a highway in the Israeli town of Lod stumbled on a major archaeological discovery: a Roman mosaic floor, dating from about C.E. 300. Once part of a grand private residence, it's now installed (temporarily) in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In a short video produced by the museum, you can see workers lifting the mosaic from the ground. You can also catch glimpses of the other portions of the mosaic (which measures about 50 by 27 feet in all) and of the footprints left by the Roman workmen who laid the tile. 2010-12-24 08:24:29Full Article
