archaeohistories, A 2nd Century AD, Roman Mosaics from ancient Plotinopolis, situated in the outskirts of modern-day Didymoteicho, northeastern Greece.
Plotinopolis was a Roman city founded by the Roman Emperor Traianus, who named it after his wife Plotini. The mosaics form part of the floor of a typical Roman triclinium, the formal dining room in Roman houses. Monstrous ichtyocentaurs and Nereids are depicted in the unearthed mosaics, along with portrayals of God of Eurus River and Plotini.
