| 説明 | Into the BathFirst, you went into the changing room - or apodyterium, where you left your clothes on a shelf, hoping nobody would take a shine to them and take them home.To work up a nice lather before washing it all away in the baths, you might take some sort of exercise, like wrestling or weightlifting.Then you went into the hot room - the caldarium - and without lifting a finger you would find yourself sweating like a marathon runner. Soap hadn't been invented yet so instead you rubbed oil on your body and then scraped it off with a stick called a strigil.After all that steam in the caldarium (hot room), you relaxed in the tepidarium (warm room).Finally, there were the cold plunge-baths or swimming pools for a nice dip to close the pores, followed by a relaxing loll by the poolside.After the BathA small fee could engage the services of a trained masseur.Grooming and beauty treatments by barbers and hairdressers were also available.And for the inside of the head, the bathhouse provided scholarly lectures and symposia.from signs at Bet She'an bathhouse |
