Central emblemata of a floor mosaic from Pompeii, two cocks confront each other in combat before a table displaying the winner's prizes: the purse (a moneybag) flanked by a caduceus and a palm of victory. The center panel is done in the fine opus vermiculatum style with small tesserae. (Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Main_Page)
