The Three Horae Mosaic This central mosaic floor depicts the Three Horae on a white background by a catenary tress zone. The Horae, daughters of Zeus and Themis and sisters of the three Fates, were the patron goddesses on time and the seasons. They were also considered the assistants of Aphrodite. Around the perimeter of the scene is a zone of repeating peltae, forming heart-shaped leaves.
