This is included in my historic floors presentation. I always say to imagine seeing this in a world where you'd never seen a television, a colour magazine, or printing in any form, or our range of modern dyes and pigments. It must have been a trip!

Just wondering how many people tripped on that because they thought the were stepping down when they weren't.

"February 1881, a Public Works employee digging in the area known as it-Tomba, outside Mdina, unearthed a splendid mosaic pavement"

Not sure where he dug first but what a find 😍
