Domus dei Tappeti di Pietra, Archaeological museum in Ravenna, Italy.
The Domus dei Tappeti di Pietra contains fourteen rooms displaying intricate mosaic floors and marble decorations situated three meters below street level.
This Byzantine residential complex from the fifth and sixth centuries was discovered in 1993 during construction work for an underground parking facility.
The floor mosaics feature the Dance of the Geni of the Four Seasons, where figures representing each season perform in a circular arrangement.
The museum entrance is located within the Church of Santa Eufemia at Via Barbiani 16, with elevated walkways allowing visitors to view the ancient floors.
The site preserves a Roman road that originally separated two buildings, demonstrating the urban layout of ancient Ravenna during different historical periods.
