Mérida

Having unearthed the ruins of a well-preserved public bath house in Mérida, Spain, in July 2023, archaeologists have come across another exciting find. The baths were discovered while excavating inside the famous 2,000-year-old House of the Amphitheater (Casa del Anfiteatro), built by the Romans in a colony in Spain they called Augusta Emerita. Within the bath house, they have now excavated a set of “practically intact” and crisscrossed iron window bars.
