Villa Romana Part 3

These photos are from inside the mini museum.

This would have been on a wall.
The torso of a man. Nice job!

Pots. You saw one in the ground on the last post.

This is an artist's rendering of what they believe the Villa looked like in it's time.

That is pretty cool!

You can see the autostrada above on the right.

I wish I could have looked down those holes!

Walls are older than the dig.

Jar for oil or water

Tomorrow photos from the mini museum.

Villa Romana

On Feb 11th my friend Sharon took me to Villa Romana in Patti. It is so cool. It's an archaeological dig of a house from Roman Times, about 4th century b.c. I wonder if they found it while building the autostrada 40 years ago! I have a brochure from there but I would have to translate it. Here are some of the photos. I will post more for a few days until I have shown them all!

Beautiful mosaics floors. The photos don't do it justice.

You can see where the walls were!

Gorgeous arch!

More tomorrow!
