"Located at the core of the historical peninsula."
This is a display of the flooring from the Bucolean Palace, which was first discovered by excavators in 1933 underneath the Arasta Bazaar. Later, in the 1950, further digs were done and more mosaics were discovered and identified. These tiles are believed to originate from the reign of Justinian (around 527 to 565) or even earlier. Several stores that were on top of the flooring were closed down and the museum was built to enclose the site.
