Domus Romana, Ancient Roman house in Asti, Italy.

The archaeological site contains the remains of a Roman residence with a preserved floor mosaic displaying fish figures and ivy twigs patterns.

This patrician residence from the first century AD stood 80 meters north of the western city gate along the primary Roman road.

The dining room floor features a white cocciopesto surface decorated with colored marble tiles arranged in geometric shapes and natural motifs.

The archaeological remains are located in the basement of the municipal Canuto Borelli elderly home, which protects the ancient structure.

The residence included a heating system with underground chambers and brick columns that warmed the rooms through an advanced hypocaust mechanism.
