Detail from the Rudston Venus Mosaic depicting the goddess Venus and a merman. Dating to the 3rd century AD, the mosaic comes from a Roman villa near Rudston in East Yorkshire. The mosaic is part of the collections at Hull and East Riding Museum. 📷 My own. #MosaicMonday

As we head into 2025, I'll be sharing 25 MEDICAL HISTORY OBJECTS starting with...
#1) 5,000-year-old prosthetic eye made of bitumen paste with lines radiating out from iris. Worn by a 6’ tall woman (possibly a priestess), found near the city of Zabol in Iran. The eye would have been painted gold.
