DESCRIPTIONThe Ancient Roman baths (thermae) had different rooms: the caldarium or hot bath; a tepidarium or warm bath; the basilica, which the frigidarium or cold bath; and the natatio, an open-air bathing pool.

The baths had rooms for changing, massage, depilation, and medicinal use. From the changing rooms (apodyteria), one would go to the gymnasia (palaestrae) to exercise and from there to a sauna (laconica) to induce an even greater sweat.
