The mosaic, which was located at the Horvat El-Bira archaeological site in the central town of Shoham, was built over 2,000 years ago during the Roman era as part of a rural villa with agricultural processing installations and homes for the residents, reports The Times of Israel.

The mosaic is intricately patterned with bright red flowers that are believed to be kalaniyot or anemones, which add bursts of color to the surrounding hillside during the winter months. The mosaic, which is made up of tiny, colored stone chips, is a testament to the skill and artistry of the Byzantine mosaic-makers.
