It is called the villa of Antiope for the figured mosaic of its main room. The oldest residential part is of the 1st century, but the thirteen rooms and the mosaics on show are of the late 3rd, and the house stayed in use into the 5th. It was found in 2003 while a block of flats was going up, and opened to the public on 19 December 2022.
