Another mosaic

Volubilis was settled and prospered under the Mauritanian kings, from the third century B.C. to 40 A.D., after which it was annexed by the Romans.

Another of the beautiful mosaics at the site. I thought the varied designs surrounding the subject were fascinating as well.

Pretty wild "party scene" I think :) Such amazing work - one wonders who long it took to design and complete such a floor. V
