Abstract
Roman mosaics in 2006
Stephen R Cosh
3 - 4
Summary of archaeological investigations during 2006, and one during 2005, in which evidence of Roman mosaics or tessellated pavements was found.
The Bellerophon mosaic at Frampton: inscriptions and programmatic intent
Roger Ling
5 - 11
The author considers the fourth-century Bellerophon pavement in the Romano-British villa at Frampton, Dorset (recorded in an engraving by Samuel Lysons published in 1813), which presented a series of figures and scenes apparently drawn from Greek myths and deities but also included a prominent Christian chi-rho monogram, as well as a pair of Latin inscriptions apparently referring to adjacent figures. The paper examines the meaning of the inscriptions, and considers whether they shed light on what the images of the mosaic meant to the patron who commissioned it.
A `new' mosaic from Cirencester
Stephen R Cosh
12 - 13
The author discusses some fragments of Roman mosaic in the collection of the Corinium Museum, arguing that they appear to fit the description of elements from a mosaic pavement found at Cirencester and removed to a privately owned museum in 1909.
`Excavating' in archives
Patricia Witts
14 - 21
The article aims to draw attention to previously unpublished information about figured mosaics from four sites: the villas of Winterton (Lincolnshire), Pitney and Whatley (both Somerset), and the Eastgate Market (previously the New Market Hall), Gloucester.
Neptune at Cirencester
Patricia Witts
22 - 26
The article analyses the history of a lost mosaic from Ashcroft Villas, Cirencester, found c. 1902, of which fragments appear to have been found in the collection of the Corinium Museum. The author also discusses the identity of the central figure, generally thought to be Neptune.
