Lod Mosaic, Roman mosaic floor in Lod, Israel.
The central panel of the mosaic floor spans 17 meters in length and features detailed patterns of animals, including lions, elephants, and marine creatures.
Construction workers discovered this third-century Roman mosaic floor in 1996 during road development, leading to immediate archaeological excavation by the Israel Antiquities Authority.
The absence of human figures and religious symbols in the mosaic design leaves uncertainty about whether the owner was Jewish, Christian, or pagan.
The Shelby White and Leon Levy Lod Mosaic Center provides visitors with direct access to view the complete ancient floor mosaic installation.
The mosaic contains rare depictions of rhinoceros and giraffe figures, which seldom appear in ancient Roman art.
