[MR] Looking for Medieval Mosaics

Thanks, Caitlin! I hadn't seen some of these before. I dug up a few 
others from my bookmarks.

This last is probably a little earlier than SCA period, but it's neat 
nonetheless. 

I have a ton of pictures from our trip to Italy - probably half of them 
(at least) are mosaics, almost all from period (yes, I have a bunch 
from Ravenna). I will bring them to University if anyone is interested 
in looking at them. I can also bring some of the books I got there 
as well.
