House of Orpheus, Volubilis, Meknes-Tafilalet, Morocco
The House of Orpheus, with floor mosaics of Aphrodite bathing surrounded by animals (left) and sea creatures (right) in the bathing room, Volubilis, Northern Morocco. Volubilis was founded in the 3rd century BC by the Phoenicians and was a Roman settlement from the 1st century AD. Volubilis was a thriving Roman olive growing town until 280 AD and was settled until the 11th century. The buildings were largely destroyed by an earthquake in the 18th century and have since been excavated and partly restored. Volubilis was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997.
