An interesting discovery was made in Antioch in 1932-1939 – over 300 mosaics were excavated from the earth, which, as it turned out, date back to the third century CE.

More than half of them are now in the Hatay Archaeological Museum in Turkey. The mosaics are very large; the largest of them showing hunting, located in the United States and measures about 6 by 7 meters. Mosaics show mainly geometric patterns and figures (one of them depicted), hunting scenes, or refer to ancient myths.
