How did Rome build a bathing complex this massive—then fill it with marble, mosaics, and myth? In this episode we break down the Baths of Caracalla from the ground up: quarrying and logistics, opus caementicium, vault engineering, and the hypocaust that fired it all. Then we walk the site—natatio, frigidarium, tepidarium, caldarium—and dig into the lost sculpture program (hello, Farnese family). It’s the complete story: construction, tour, and decoration—why Caracalla still stuns.
