MASSACIUCCOLI
Tuscany, Italy.
The site
of a Roman Imperial habitation center with a well-preserved bath complex built in the middle of the 1st c. A.D;
the ancient name is unknown. The baths, of asymmetrical
plan but of advanced engineering and design, show an
interesting stage in the evolution of bath architecture.
Whether they belonged to a large villa or a station on the
Via Aemilia Scauri is disputed.
