Puppy prints and wall illusions found in 1,500-year-old house in Turkey Owen Jarus © Provided by Live Science Excavator Frances Gallart Marqués with the base of a monopod table in front of a wall painting of a painted curtain. Archaeologists have discovered a fantastical-looking, 1,500-year-old house in Turkey that was decorated with illusory wall paintings and terracotta tiles on the floor with puppy prints and possible chicken decorations pressed into them. The house may have been used by people involved with the military, the researchers noted. The tiles preserved the paw prints of puppies and in one rare case the hoof print of a goat, Frances Gallart Marqués, a former curatorial fellow at the Harvard Art Museums, said Jan. 6 during a presentation at the virtual joint annual meeting of the Archaeological Institute of America (AIA) and the Society for Classical Studies (SCS).
