Urfa Haleplibahce Museum Yukari Goklu village mosaic sept 2019 5206.jpg

Yukarı Göklü village mosaic, from a village in the Halfeti district in the province of Şanlıurfa. In 2013 it was transferred to the museum. It shows several kinds of birds between vines on a rectangular panel, and dates from the 5-6th century AD. A peacock in the centre has been partly destroyed. In an outer panel there is a Greek text.
