When was the dog mosaic of pompeii made?
The most well-known mosaic of a dog in Pompeii is thought to be made around the 2nd century BCE. It is located in the House of the Tragic Poet, a traditional Roman house in Pompeii that is famous for its mosaics with scenes from Greek mythology and dramas. The mosaic of the dog is nearly lifesize. It is black with white markings, wears a collar and chain, and appears to be growling. The words 'Cave Canem' ("Beware of the Dog") are below it. This mosaic is found near the entrance. The house itself is named after a mosaic of actors performing a drama. Not much is known about the family who owned this house or their lifestyle. It was a beautiful house that has been remarkably well-preserved considering the eruption of Vesuvius and the amount of time that has passed. It has been suggested that the house belonged to P. Aninius who came from a family in Pompeii.
