They used mortar.
They attached the tesserae, or small tiles to the floors with mortar just as some mosiacs are still attached today. From Musivarius: The Romans used a mix called Pozzolan, volcanic rock crushed and mixed with lime.

they used a dagger to put in mosaics
the ancient Romans who made floor mosaics had a great supply of marble so they used that but they made so many that they saved the other type of rock for makeing more important things
The Romans used many subjects and animals for mosaics. They covered whole villas with mosaics on the floors and the paintings in the Vatican are mosaics too. I have been in a villa in Sicily that every floor was covered in mosaics and to see them ramps were put up over them. All sorts of animals and people were pictured. They had lions, tigers, and even girls in swim suits.

Mosaics would have been found in the homes of wealthy Romans. Mosaics were floor decorations and only the wealthy could afford to have them installed. They could also be installed in public buildings and temples perhaps as a gift from a wealthy person.

Yes. The mosaic is the only art form not borrowed from other cultures. From Musivarius: It tends to be acepted that the Romans took the craft of mosaic from the Greeks who developed floor mosaics made with pebbles starting in the 5th century BC. These began to be made using cut stone from about the 3rd century BC and with the take over of Greece in 2nd century BC the Romans developed a taste for floor mosaics.
i belive it was the brittanica romans.
