The Largest Roman Mosaic Found in London in 50 Years
In the heart of London, archaeologists working on Southwark Street uncovered the largest Roman mosaic found in the city in half a century. Discovered in 2022 by the Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA), this mosaic dates back to the late 2nd or early 3rd century AD and was likely part of a grand Roman dining room known as a triclinium.

Archaeologists carefully uncover an ancient Roman mosaic beneath a modern construction site in London, with The Shard skyscraper towering in the background. The detailed geometric and floral patterns of the mosaic鈥攃rafted in red, white, black, and ochre tiles鈥攃ontrast strikingly with the surrounding soil and machinery, symbolizing the city鈥檚 deep historical layers where ancient Londinium meets contemporary London.

@streetartutopia I guess they need to open a new Museum. The Museum of not stolen Art. MONSA.
