In the past century, exploration and serendipity have uncovered mosaic after mosaic in the Near East--maps, historical images and religious scenes constituting a treasure of new testimony from antiquity. In them, Bowersock finds historical evidence, illustrations of literary and mythological tradition, religious icons, and monuments to civic pride.
