The famous "bikini girls" mosaic, found by archaeological excavation of the ancient Roman villa del Casale near Piazza Armerina in Sicily. This shows women exercising, running, or receiving the palm of victory and wreath (for winning an athletic competition). Note that the bikinis are shown as sportswear (workout gear and outfits for athletic competition), not swimwear...

At the lower left of the full mosaic, a non-bikini-clad woman rushes in with wreath and palm-leaf to crown a victor.
