Roman Baths, Ancient Roman thermae in Bath, England
The Roman Baths complex contains four primary sections: a sacred spring, a temple, a bathhouse, and a museum displaying archaeological findings from Aquae Sulis.
The site's development began between 60-70 AD with a temple construction, leading to the establishment of Aquae Sulis settlement, operating until the 5th century.
The thermal waters attracted both Roman and Celtic worshippers, who dedicated the springs to the goddess Sulis, later merged with the Roman deity Minerva.
The springs generate 1,170,000 liters of geothermally heated water daily, reaching temperatures between 69 to 96 degrees Celsius through limestone aquifers.
The museum houses Britain's largest votive deposit, including over 12,000 Roman Denarii coins and a gilt bronze head of the goddess Sulis Minerva.
