Due to destructive excavation practices at Hammam-Lif, this plate remains our best source for what the synagogue’s complete mosaic floor would have looked like before its panels were separated and dispersed. At right and left are representations of wildlife against a foliage pattern, including images similar to non-Jewish mosaics in the area, indicating that the mosaics were produced in regional workshops.
