Detail of a third or fourth century CE Roman Mosaic from Ammaedara showing Sicilian Eryx as "Erycos." The mosic may depict islands and island cities connected to Venus as centers of worship (Eryx, Cypus, Paphos, Idalion), venues for famous love affairs (Skyros, Knossos, Naxos, Rhodes) or as victims of Venus' wrath (Lemnos).
