The mosaic in the main room shows actors and musicians engaged in artistic competitions. The mosaic is articulated in three registers. In the upper register there are four musicians, one with a cithara mounted on a table, one with a kind of organ carried on the head, one playing a double flute and one with a tibicine, another kind of flute. To the left a man is standing, dressed in a toga over a tunic, with his right arm raised and a palm leaf in the left hand.

We humbly ask for your help. We need your support to keep Mused running.

We're the largest independent hub of digital cultural heritage, and we survive on donations of about $30 USD. Less than 1% of people donate. If everyone reading this donated $5, our fundraiser would be done within a day!

We support training and providing technology to the communities that take of the monuments where we work to digitize their own cultures. For the price of a cup of coffee, you can continue preserving cultural heritage for future generations.

Thanks for reading, and we hope you'll consider donating. — Luke Hollis, Cofounder, Mused
