I'm Michael Hoff and I have unearthed a massive Roman mosaic.
The discovery in southern Turkey is a 1,600 square foot marble pavement.
It's possibly the largest mosaic of its kind ever found.
This find is significant because it answers a lot of cultural questions regarding the Roman Empire about 1,600 years ago.
Very few institutions have an opportunity to excavate in Turkey and we're proud of the fact that the University of Nebraska is one of them.
Nebraska students are getting an amazing experience digging in the ground to reveal these important historical and cultural remains.
And we're discovering history.
GROUP: We are Nebraska!
HOFF: As we uncover the mosaic it will allow it to be revealed and seen for generations to come.
