Hamam

Let the heat and the water purify you.

The ideals of bathing in the ancient civilised world were nuanced; religion, health and society all combined to make bathing an event. The Greeks and Romans are most famously known for propagating this ideal, but the eastern nations fostered their own bathing culture. For instance, the Sassanids built baths around a central focus on water, as opposed to steam, which draws heavily from the water's symbolic purity in the Zoroastrian religion. Bathers would progress through several rooms; a warm room, a hot room, a washing area, and then a cooling room for relaxation. After the Rashidun Caliphate conquered Sassanid Persia the baths became more heavily tied to religion - a place to perform ablutions in accordance with Islam. The baths at Siba are a remaining relic of Sassanid culture, built over natural hot springs for use by government officials and merchants.
