This is a genuine public toilet for men only. The marble seats were cold so your slave sat on them to warm them up first. Ephesus, Turkey.

Sections of the Roman water-pipe in Bethlehem that led from Solomon's Pools to Jerusalem. These sections of pipe are inscribed with the names of the Roman military commanders responsible for laying the pipe. Notice how the circular flange on one side of each section fits into a matching socket on the back of the next section. Held at the Israel Archaeological Museum, Jerusalem.
