Trajan Baths

This article from Oxford Research Encyclopedia has a discussion of the architecture of the baths (using the Latin term Thermae):

 

Yegül, Fikret. "baths and bathing." Oxford Classical Dictionary.  July 30, 2020. Oxford University Press. Date of access 14 Jan. 2025, <https://oxfordre.com/classics/view/10.1093/acrefore/9780199381135.001.0001/acrefore-9780199381135-e-1067>

 

And this is a short article about the architect of the baths, Apollodorus of Damascus:
