  • The Madaba Mosaic Map still serves today as floor of the Greek Orthodox parish church of St. George, built in fact in 1896 A.D. over the remains of a Byzantine church, whose dating is probably to be set at the end of 6th or at the beginning of 7th century A.D. The mosaic panel enclosing the Map was originally some 15.60 by 6 m, of which only a quarter of the total is preserved. Some have suggested that this map of Holy Land may have been useful to pilgrims, to help them peregrinate from one holy place to another.

  • The Madaba Mosaic Map still serves today as floor of the Greek Orthodox church of St. George. The mosaic contains the earliest extant representation of Byzantine Jerusalem, labeled the "Holy City." The map provides important details, with the cardo, or central colonnaded street and the Holy Sepulchre clearly visible. This map is one key in developing scholarly knowledge about Jerusalem after its destruction in 70 AD. The mosaic panel enclosing the Map was originally some 15.60 by 6 m, of which only a quarter of the total is preserved. Some have suggested that this map of Holy Land may have been useful to pilgrims, to help them peregrinate from one holy place to another.

  • Mexicos’s most populous Indian community, a mosaic of more than 400.000, lives in a most unexpected place, in the heart of the one of the largest megalopoli on earth, Mexico City. Tenaciously clinging to to ancient traditions, they continue to weave dreams and make plans difficult to undertand by  those part of their world. The ties to their homes are so strong, that some researchers define these urban groups as “embassies” for their distant villages...that form, in many ways, a different world. This Indian world of the city is a subterranean universe, often hidden behind the annonymous doorway of some rundown colonial mansion.
