GhostOfClayton Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Believe it or not, the reprodution town houses at both Augusta Raurica and Wroxeter had them in the kitchen. This is so both functions could share a fresh water supply and a waste water drain. Only a few private houses possessed toilets, though. In Wroxeter, there was also a toilet in the Caldarium. For information, the military Bath house at Segedunum has them in the Apodyterium. Edited February 3, 2012 by GhostOfClayton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crispina Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Yes, in or close by to the kitchen. I remember seeing this frequently in photos of the houses in Pompeii via a fantastic web site, the link of which was posted here and I have since lost. The web site listed the buildings of Pompeii and corresponding photos, someone walked the site and recorded and photographed them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
