How do the Roman and Byzantie mosaics differ?

In a very simplified form: Roman mosaics, small pieces of cut stone (tesserae) about 8mm - 12mm in size set together to make patterns and other images as a floor. Taken from the Greeks (about 2nd century BC) they were eventually replaced from around the 6th century AD by Opus Sectile, (patterns on the floor made up with larger, cut to shape pieces of stone tile). Byzantine mosaics, the tesserae were cut from piece of coloured glass called smalti. These were then made to create mosaics on the walls and ceilings of the first Christian churches.
