Hercules mosaic, House of the Labours of Hercules, Volubilis, Meknes-Tafilalet, Morocco
Roman mosaic of Hercules capturing the Cretan bull, his seventh labour, from the Labours of Hercules mosaic in the House of the Labours of Hercules, 1st century AD, 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.
