A mosaic is seen in Palazzo Valentini in Rome, Thursday December 20, 2007 in the restored ruins of two opulent Roman villas and private thermal baths, part of an exhibition which will open to the public on Saturday December 22. A 1,800-square-meter (2,000 square yards) complex, dating back to the 2nd-4th century, features well-preserved mosaic and marble floors, bathtubs and collapsed walls that archeologists believe belong to a domus - the richly decorated residences of Rome's wealthy and noble families.
