The Ephesians

The representation rooms within Unit 5, like in other units, are located to the north. One of the easternmost rooms, covering an area of approximately 23 square meters, is referred to as the Stucco Room (25). This room is accessed by two steps from the peristyle courtyard (24).

 

The floor features a geometrically patterned polychrome mosaic that is related to the wall decoration.

 

Except for the northern wall, there is a damaged wall decoration layer on three walls:

 

The socle consists of a white band with small and large plates. The small ones imitate red-striped marble, while the large ones imitate black-green marble. Above the socle is a round plaster.

 

The main area consists of dark red rectangular areas and is approximately 1 cm in height. These monochrome red areas are contained within white plaster profile borders, approximately 20 cm wide, imitating marble panels.
