The mosaic in the rectangular part of the room depicts the Greek legend of Arion. Arion was a famous poet of Corinth in Greece. He decided to attend a musical competition in Sicily, which he won, but on return from Sicily the avaricious sailors plotted to kill Arion and steal the rich prices he carried homewards. Arion was given the choice of suicide, allowing a proper burial on land, or being thrown in the sea to perish. He asked for permission to sing a last song.
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
