Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The article discusses the mosaic from Room 12 at Brading Roman villa, Isle of Wight, which depicts the figure of Winter holding a stick from which is suspended a small bird. Using the evidence of ancient documentary sources and of mosaics from elsewhere in the Roman Empire, many depicting the figure of Winter, the author argues that the bird is a thrush, a popular delicacy of the Roman world and one that was associated with the winter months. | |||||
