The Port Illustration on the floor mosaic of the Yakto Villa

Abstract

The most important materials that can shed light on the historical atmosphere of Antiocheia on Orontes are mosaic panels. The floor mosaic obtained from the Daphne Yakto villa provides valuable information by showing the topography, the architecture and the daily life of Daphne and Antiocheia on Orontes. While a part of the academic research labelled the U-shaped, colonnaded structure filled with water as a reservoir, certain details of the depiction give us clues to the possibility that this could actually be a port. Records provided by antique writers on the city and comparisons made with architecturally similar material seem to yield data that support the idea that this structure functioned as a commercial port
