Abduction of Hylas mosaic, House of the Procession of Venus, Volubilis, Meknes-Tafilalet, Morocco
Roman mosaic of the Abduction of Hylas by the nymphs, 3rd century AD, from the House of the Procession of Venus, 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.
