Summary (English)

  • Excavation of the baths concentrated on an area in the south-eastern corner, including an extension to the east abutting the medieval wall in via Ghibelline and to the south. The extension to the east included a 3.15 × 11.86 m strip of terrain on a north-south alignment and that on the south front was 3.68 x circa 10.19 m. A layer of dumped earth was removed from the area down to 0.64 m below ground level.

    The eastern perimeter of the cold room, with a marine procession ( thiasos ) mosaic, was reached. The southward extension revealed the presence of an adjacent, smaller room, its walls faced with a thick layer of opus signinum, completely filled with collapsed rubble, among which where several sandstone architectural elements.

    Work continued on the consolidation of the west walls of the bath building.

    Among the archaeological material recovered, both sporadically and from within the contexts, there was a silver denarius that had been cut in half. The obverse shows Roma Galatea and the reverse the Dioscuri on horseback. The coin dates to between the end of the 2nd century and the first half of the 1st century B.C.
