Baths of Arcadius

The Baths of Arcadius (

Eastern Roman Empire. It is unknown whether the baths were founded by Emperor Arcadius, or by his daughter, Arcadia. Some suggest Arcadia and another woman named Marina were responsible for the construction of the baths. Alternatively, Arcadius began the construction of the baths, and Arcadia finished it.^[1] Once finished, the baths were located where the seraglio would be built.^[2] This bath was renovated by Emperor Justinian.^[3]
