Ancient Mosaic of Apollo Discovered in Downtown Rome
Excavations in the bowels of an ancient Roman hill have turned up a well-preserved, late 1st century wall mosaic with a figure of Apollo, nude except for a colorful mantle over a shoulder.Archaeologists and city officials unveiled the recent find to reporters Friday on the Oppian Hill.
The mosaic-covered wall is 16 meters (53 feet) wide and at least 2 meters (6.6 feet) high. Officials think the wall continues down some 8 meters (26.5 feet) more.
Archaeologists say the wall appears to be in a tunnel built to help support Trajan's Baths, named for the emperor who ruled from 98 till 117. The mosaic, which also depicts a Muse, apparently embellished a room where wealthy Romans gathered to hear music and discuss art.

Spanish Celtic Music | Beith Online
Some beautiful Celtic music. Few people know this, but the Celtic tribes / people from Central North West of Spain. Remaining "original" inhabitants of Spain Iberian =. Present day Spanish = Celtiberians mostly with other Indo-European influences. (Mainly 2: various Germanic tribes (Visigoths, for example) and the ancient tribes Italic (Etruscan, for example) at the time of the Visigothic kingdom and the Roman Empire). This song is in particular a band of Asturias, northern Spain. A small tribute to their music.
your talking about arabs as if they were indians arabs belong to the caucasian breed you half wit, whats this our people shit I’m mostly Breton, Danish, 4.16% irish & I call bullshit there is no such thing as a pure blooded celt so you try to enjoy the music & save yourself the embarrassment, instead do some research irish & spaniards are the same in customs & beliefs that goes for all of spain not just the north, besides the arabs in iberia where practically wiped out
Os cerrais mucho a que los celtas estaban sólo en Galicia y Asturias, olvidais Cantabria,La Rioja y Navarra, los berones(En la Rioja) eran tan celtas como los galaicos o los astures, incluso, aunque no está muy extendido existe un tipo de gaita única de la rioja, la gaita de bota,además no olvidemos que la mayor parte del interior de la península eran considerados celtiberos, ya que estaban mezclados con los iberos, y los iberos puros que estaban en el levante y el sur.
We don’t know exactly where the celts came from but present day Spain and Portugal was orginally called Iberia by the ancient Greeks. These people were known as Iberians, many people believe that they were ancestors to the earliest tribes of celtic origin. When we think of celts we think of people with light skin,blonde hair and blue eyes,but there is growing evidence among scientists and DNA research that the celts were infact people with dark features,dark hair and eyes.Hard to believe i know!
Iberia, present day Spain and Portugal is where it is believed that ancient celtic tribes were formed. These celts were known as Iberians, most people think of celts as light skinned,blonde hair and blue eyed but it is most likely that they were not a celtic people. Infact, there is growing evidence and support among scientists that the original celtic tribes had dark features,dark hair and eyes.I know that’s hard to believe but new evidence and DNA theories are gaining support.
