Resumo: Discussion on the Roman mosaic as techné or as ars, is provided, or rather, a decoration technique for interiors made at high specialization levels. When the main procedures adopted in mosaic art are established, we will show how a certain technique, a particular way in handling unsophisticated materials learnt by semi-illiterate people, lost throughout the ages, was used to express themes and motifs connected with paideia, the superior education of the Greco-Roman elite. As a case study, two mid-3rd century CE mosaics found in the so-called House of Menander, a villa located in the suburb of Daphne, in southern Antioch, will be investigated.

Una vez establecidos, en líneas generales, los procedimientos empleados en la confección de los mosaicos, buscaremos, enseguida, demonstrar cómo determinada técnica, una manera particular de manipulación de materiales rústicos dominada por individuos semi-letrados cuya memoria prácticamente se perdió, es movilizada con la finalidad de exprimir temas y motivos conectados con la paideia, la formación cultural superior concedida a los miembros de la élite grecorromana. Como estudio de caso, tomaremos dos mosaicos encontrados en la así denominada Casa de Menandro, un pueblo ubicado en el distrito de Dafne, al sur de Antioquía. Ambos los mosaicos datan de la segunda mitad del siglo III. Neste artigo, pretendemos desenvolver algumas reflexões acerca do mosaico romano como techné ou ars, ou seja, como uma técnica de decoração de interiores que comportava um alto nível de especialização.
