ドムス・アウレア
The baths sat at the base of the Esquiline Hill, an area of parkland and luxury estates which had been taken over by Nero (AD 54–68) for his Golden House or "Domus Aurea". Titus' baths were built in haste, possibly by converting an existing or partly built bathing complex belonging to the reviled "Domus Aurea". They were not particularly extensive, and the much larger Baths of Trajan were built immediately adjacent to them at the start of the next century.
