The Colosseum in Rome postdates the Pompeii Spectacula by over a century!

Stabian Baths

The Stabian Baths stand close to the Forum and are the oldest in the city. It is evidently divided into 2 sections along the same axis: male and female, with a courtyard gym. Much like other Roman baths, there were different rooms with thermal pools of different temperatures and depths. Apparently, hot water ran through the chamber walls for heating. The dressing rooms here are an interesting detail with figurative panels of mythological figures and athletes.
