This partial mosaic floor was most likely stratigraphically contemporaneous with the other partial mosaic floors of Room I-17 (SUs 8402, 8403, 8411, and 8409). This conclusion is based on the consistent presence of similar decorative features (i.e. a band of smaller, white tesserae and a set pattern of rectangular marble crustae). Although there is no evident physical relationship, it is highly likely that SUs 8403, 8402, 8410, and 8411 once composed a unified mosaic floor. It is also possible that SU 8409 connected to the mosaic floor of the eastern side of Room I-20, but there is a notable absence of mosaic in the center of the room (on a N-S axis) and therefore the mosaic might have been purposely separate. Lastly, the small partial mosaic floor in the apsidal Room I-20 might have once been connected as well, but that relationship is far less certain. Not only is it spatially distant, it is located in a different room that might have had a threshold separating the two spaces. Further investigation is necessary to understand the relationship between Rooms I-17 and I-20.

Partial mosaic on eastern side of room 17 of irregular dimensions. Surface partially covered by mortar. Mosaic probably extended to eastern and southern walls of room 17, but no definite physical relationships exist. Mosaic includes one white decorative strip and multiple square marble inclusions in regular set intervals.
