In a tunnel dug in the Villa dei Papiri in Herculaneum, a beautiful mosaic floor decorated with a complex meander emerged. The mosaic belongs to a room of the Villa and dates back to the 1st century AD.

The Villa dei Papiri, also called Villa dei Pisoni, is a Roman Villa buried in 79 AD and it was so called because it kept inside a library with 1800 papyri (many still to be studied because they are semi-carbonized).

The tallest tree in Wales had been damaged by a storm and was supposed to be cut down ... but chainsaw artist Simon O'Rourke found a better solution to symbolise the tree's last attempt to reach the sky.
