Ambulocetus

A photograph of a room with a Roman mosaic floor. Three people are cleaning the mosaic using kneeling pads to prevent them from directly touching it. The room is mostly dark but lit by bright spotlights. The mosaic is a mixture of floral and geometric patterns, including swastikas (until the 20th century a symbol of good luck).
