The Eros and Psyche Mosaic is a Roman mosaic discovered in the ancient city of Zeugma, now in the town of Gaziantep, Türkiye. It is one of the most well-preserved and iconic Roman mosaics in the world. The mosaic depicts the Greek myth of Eros and Psyche. Eros was the god of love, and Psyche was a beautiful mortal princess. The mosaic shows Eros embracing Psyche, while she holds a butterfly in her hand. The butterfly is a symbol of the soul, and the mosaic is thought to represent the power of love to transform and elevate the soul. The Eros and Psyche Mosaic was discovered in 2001 during excavations at a Roman villa in Zeugma. The villa was part of a wealthy residential district that was destroyed by a flood in the 6th century AD. The mosaic was found well-preserved beneath the mud and debris of the flood.
