MOSAICI E PAVIMENTI IN CEMENTIZIO SUL PROMONTORIO DI CAPO COLONNA (CROTONE).

The aim of this paper is to present the development of the Roman flooring types and decorations in the area of the colonia maritima of Crotone, in Calabria, built on the promontory of Capo Colonna (formerly Lacinio), where the Greek sanctuary of Hera Lacinia stood. The floorings, examined in relation to their building contexts, take on greater importance where they are integrated with mosaic tesserae inserts or enriched by more demanding mosaic bands or squares, among which the most important is that of the bath (balneum) with the names of the quinquennial duoviri [-] Lucilius Macer and T. Annaeus Thraso. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
