Amazing mosaic in Rome. In the Vatican Museum, hanging on a wall, you can admire this marvelous mosaic that probably was covering one of the pavements of the Caracalla’s Baths.
A herd is offering a lamb to the priest, probably to be offered to a god in a pagan ritual ending in a huge dinner and an orgy. Scenes of the ritual were nowhere to found in the Museum.
