The Stag Hunt mosaic is a mosaic from a wealthy home of the late 4th century BC, the so-called "House of the Abduction of Helen", in Pella, the capital of the Macedonian Kingdom. It bears the signature of the Ancient Greek artist Gnosis, of whom very little is known. It is now located in the Archaeological Museum of Pella, Central Macedonia, Greece.
