The monography written by Giovanni Filingeri and Giuseppe Randazzo examines all the historical and topographical data available to date for the localization of the area where the famous mosaic known as "De Spuches Mosaic" was found in 1873. After the discovery, Giuseppe De Spuches, Prince of Galati, transferred the pavement to his residence in Palermo. Through meticulous archival researches, the authors reconstruct the 19th century rural landscape in the Carini valley and especially in the "contrada San Nicola", and they propose a convincing hypothesis for identifying the site of the late Roman villa to which the mosaic must have belonged.

Abstract

The monography written by Giovanni Filingeri and Giuseppe Randazzo examines all the historical and topographical data available to date for the localization of the area where the famous mosaic known as "De Spuches Mosaic" was found in 1873. After the discovery, Giuseppe De Spuches, Prince of Galati, transferred the pavement to his residence in Palermo. Through meticulous archival researches, the authors reconstruct the 19th century rural landscape in the Carini valley and especially in the "contrada San Nicola", and they propose a convincing hypothesis for identifying the site of the late Roman villa to which the mosaic must have belonged.
