The Gypsy Girl (Menad) Mosaic
This mosaic was found in dining room of the house of Gypsy Girl (Menad). The figure became the symbol of Zeugma because of the mysterious look she had in her eyes. When it could not be identified it got named “Gypsy” because of the women’s resemblance with gypsies. But some sources draw attention to the wine in the mosaic and claim that it is Menad .
The mosaic is uncovered in the salvage excavations in October of 1998 at Zeugma.

Really amazing….nice share.. i love it. thanks so much.
Since the admin of this website is working, no uncertainty
very quickly it will be well-known, due to its quality contents.
I’m impressed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s both educative and interesting, and without
a doubt, you’ve hit the nail on the head. The problem is something which too few men and women are speaking intelligently about. I’m very happy I stumbled across this in my search for something regarding
this.
Very good article. I certainly appreciate this site.
Keep it up!
