1. Roman Bathhouse Marker
Water was piped into the hot and cold rooms, the showers and the latrines.
As usual in large Roman cities, the bathhouses served a social function, and an expression of the splendor, sophistication and refinement of the city’s dominant culture.
Excavations in Caesarea over the years uncovered six such bathhouses.
Proposed restoration of a typical Roman bathhouse.

وصلت المياه إلى الحمام عن طريق نظام الأنابيب الذي أوصلها إلى غرف الاستحمام الساخنة والباردة، إلى غرف تغيير الملابس والمراحيض.
غرف الاستحمام، كانت الحمامات مكانا للقاء

המים הגיעו לבית המרחץ באמצעות מערכת צינורות שהובילה אותם אל חדרי הרחצה החמה והקרה, אל המלתחות ואל בתי השימוש (לטרינות). כמקובל בעיר רומית גדולה, בתי המרחץ שימשו מקום מפגש ומוקד חברתי, והיו ביטוי לפאר, לתחכום ולעידון שאפיינו את התרבות השלטת בעיר. במהלך עבודת החפירה בקיסריה נחשפו לאורך השנים שישה בתי מרחץ.
