the best-preserved of bath house on the acropolis of Cosa (southewest of the forum), recently excavated by Andrea DeGiorgi
the mode of propulsion is not determined yet but low lift and moderate bath house dimensions suggest an existince of either human-powered tread wheel or small sclae saqiya gear similar to one used in spring house at the port
