11 Now the whole earth had one language and one speech. 2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there. 3 Then they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar. 4 And they ….  Read More

THE ROMAN BATHS are the most popular visitor attraction in Bath. The hot springs have long been thought to heal the sick.   The Romans mainly used baths for leisure but some people believed in their therapeutic benefits.
