These would have ranged from a frigidarium (cold), to a piscina (swimming pool), tepidarium (lukewarm) and caldarium (hot). In front of the comparatively well-preserved lower floor of the baths with its covered passageways and heating system, can be seen the palaestra, where bathers did their exercises. Also on display are fragments of columns and capitals as well as some interesting Byzantine gravestones.
