That is just incredible. It’s amazing it is in a farmer’s field and hasn’t been destroyed by 10,000 ploughs over the eons. Yet it was close enough to the surface for fragments to be lying on the ground.

RE: Upon finding these traces during lock down in 2020...
“It was like literally within a couple of weeks before we had people on site to start working this properly,”

Notice the 2020 COVID-19 lock down didn't deter the archeologists from descending upon the site. NO MASKS EITHER.

Very cool, although Homer does look a bit gay in the mosaic.

So interesting! And I’m also a bit amazed that it was just sitting there that whole time and no one knew or noticed. That’s crazy!

Ruins might get maintained better if they didn’t put them in farmers’ fields.
