Video description

Ephesus was an ancient Greek city, and later a major Roman city, on the west coast of Asia Minor, near present-day Selcuk, within the Province of Izmir, Turkey. It was one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League during the Classical Greek Period. In Roman Times, circa the 1st Century BC, Ephesus had a population of more than 250,000 citizens, making it the second largest city in the world. Destroyed by the Goths in 263 AD, Ephesus still remained an important city during the Byzantine period. The Public Latrine was part of the Scholastica Baths Complex, located near the intersection of Curetes Street and the Marble Road, and adjacent to the Brothel. Built circa 98-117 AD, these were the public toilets of the city. An entrance fee needed to be paid in order to use them. In their midst, an uncovered pool was found. The toilets were aligned along the walls, while the columns surrounding the pool supported a wooden ceiling. A drainage system under the toilets flushed the dirty water out of the building. The structure was probably renovated in the 4th Century AD.
