Pebble paved floor

The pebble, embedded in the paved floor of the Persepolis palace in early 3000 B.C. is accepted as the first specimen of mosaic art. Afterwards,

this art is seen respectively in Gordion, Assos, Teos, Erythrai, Tarsus and Pergamon.

One of the most exquisite examples of the pebble mosaic art belonging to ancient periods

was unearthed from the excavations in Olynthos, in Northern Greece, from V. Century B.C.

The IV. Century B.C. pebble mosaic ground floor in Macedonia/Pella made of colored pebbles,

depicting Dionysus's lion hunt is the example best preserved to our days!
