pompeii, italy - Archaeologists uncover a luxurious spa complex buried under volcanic ash in Pompeii, Italy, offering a glimpse into ancient Roman bathing rituals.

Spa Discovery in Pompeii

In the southern Italian city of Pompeii, a well-preserved spa complex dating back 2,000 years has been discovered beneath layers of volcanic rock and ash. The recently unearthed complex features hot, warm, and cold rooms, elegant artworks, and a large swimming pool, providing insights into the bathing practices of the ancient Romans.

Sauna and Bathing Rituals

Visitors to the spa would first undress in a mosaic-floored changing room with red walls before moving to the heated hot room where they would enjoy the sauna and a hot bath. Following the hot room, they would proceed to the warm room for oil application and scraping of the skin with a strigil. The bathing ritual would conclude in the cold room surrounded by red columns and adorned with frescoes depicting athletes.
