Another Dodgy Mosaic...

LJ's doing weird things just now, so I'll keep this short.

Just to prove that original Romano-British mosaics can be, um, well, pants, I thought I'd post a link for you:-

Hey, maybe the moo-cow at Wroxeter ain't so bad after all.

And I've been trying to track down this mosaic ever since I was an undergraduate.  It's at Leeds Museum, evidently, and it features Romulus and Remus, and a rather jolly foster-mum.

Enjoy!
