This is the original mosaic that was found in the Temple of Apollo and Artemis at Letoön. The sun disk in the center symbolizes Lycia, the land of light. On the right the lyre symbolizes Apollo and on the left the bow and the quiver symbolize his twin sister Artemis.
It was discovered in 2004 during the Turkish/French excavations at Letoön. The mosaic has been restored and is now on display in the Archaeological Museum in Fethiye.
