NORTHERN CENTRAL SYRIA
cuted in colors on a white ground. The two groups which occupy the eastern
angles of the field are separated by a pomegranate-tree, the stem of which rises at
the edge of the border, and whose leafy branches, loaded with fruit, spread out along
the eastern side of the circle. The stem of the tree is only outlined in black; but the
leaves are represented in solid black, while the fruit appears in pink with a white spot
at one side. Beneath the branches of this tree, in the northeast angle of the pave-
ment, a tiger is seen leaping upon a gazelle. The line of action of the group, it will
be seeri, is not parallel to either side of the border, but runs diagonally across the
Mosaic in bath at Serdjilla.
