Summary

Description
English: A mosaic from Palmyra named the "tigers mosaic".

The inscription conceal an earlier one that read : (Mrn), which is a title used by Odaenathus.[1]

Michael Gawlikowski who discovered the mosaic in 2003 suggest that it celebrate Odaenathus' victory over the Persians. The archer (who is wearing the traditional dress of Palmyrene aristocrasy) is Odaenathus while the tigers represent the Persians; Odaenathus is about to be crowned with victory by the eagle flying above him.[2]
