Vittoria e della Sconfitta.
Emblema pavimentale in opus vermiculatum.
La scena raffigura una lotta di galli, con quello
perdente che sanguina.

quello del gallo sconfitto, a destra, insieme a un servetto; mentre quello del
gallo vittorioso, a sinistra, offre una corona alla statua di Priapo; un
fanciullo, da destra, porta la palma della vittoria. Prima metà del I secolo

“10th September 1835. And in the floor of the
small room on the left, near to the left corner at the head of the same
tablinum, we have discovered a second mosaic, sized 18.16 inches squared (0.46m

being injured, his owner stands dejected, while the owner of the victorious
cock happily holds out a wreath/crown, as he is handed a palm leaf.”
