more roman stuff

the romans were pretty sophisticated in the art of taking baths, in fact they had giant swimming pool sized public baths in a place called a bath house where everyone got naked and bathed together. there were 3 different kinds of baths, the frigidarium- which was really cold, the tepidarium- room temp, and the caldarium- really hot. they would bath in all three of these in one trip to the bath house because they believed the shock that was administered to their bodies after the drastic temp change was really healthy. usually they seperated thye guys from the chics on the baths.
 

The arch of Constantine is another pretty awesome piece of roman architecture. it commemorates the victories and assumption of power of Constantine.
