Summary
| Description |
English: This mosaic was found in the large square frigidarium of the Apolausis Baths, a small but well-preserved baths a Narlıca, some 9 kilometres from Antakya, in the 1930’s. The female figure constituting the main theme is named Soteria (literally: saviour). She is surrounded by a circular band and is depicted as a female bust rendered over the waistline. Her slightly turned head is crowned with a gold wreath of laurel leaves, which join at a green gem over her forehead. Her hair falls down her shoulders. She wears a shawl over a white dress, covering her left shoulder and breast. She has several pieces of jewellery. That a bejewelled figure representing the saviour is depicted in a bathhouse may be explained with her being a symbol believed to protect health. inv. 977 |
