Daic paintings have been found at various locations, thus showing the early dispersion of this art form. Its significance is not fully understood, but each rendering displays easily identifiable similarities: the lushness of the costumes, the foot ware, the intentional abstractive elements of the pottery, and the range of pigments in the composition. Also, flowers are often but not necessarily a part of the costume.

The combination of painting, pottery, dance and detail to costume identifies four advanced art forms and speaks to a level of culture and artistic sophistication surprising at such early dates and varied locations. The addition of flowers also suggests floral cultivation and therefore an aesthetic environment.

Note that no daic pottery or shards have been found, even though the word is defined as being of ceramic origin. Instead, all evidence is two dimensional. If this is intentional, then this art form is and always was a rendering of a rendering, indicating a playful subtlety of imagination and intellectual wit never before attributed to the ancients.
