Only architectural remains of the central tholos of the complex, dated to the 2nd c. AD, have survived. The archaeological and historical importance of the monument is mainly due to the preserved edict of Diocletian, written on the building’s jambs.

Bath complex ΙΙ 11Β at Anemourion displays the basic features of Late Roman baths of Cilicia and eastern Pamphylia; its interest lies in the arrangement of the three hot chambers in a row. The bath was probably part of the same building program as the adjacent bath complex ΙΙΙ 2Β, as a response to the need for gender-segregated baths. It probably dates, with some uncertainty, to the 3rd c. AD. |
