EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print captures a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of ancient Roman civilization. Taken in the 2nd century, it showcases a public latrine and washbasin situated near the baths in Dougga, Tunisia. The elevated view allows us to appreciate the architectural beauty and grandeur of this outdoor facility. The image is filled with color and detail, transporting us back in time to witness an essential aspect of Roman culture. The concept of communal hygiene was highly valued by these advanced societies, as evidenced by this well-designed lavatory space. The exterior design of the latrine and washbasin reflects the ingenuity and sophistication of Roman architecture. Its strategic location near the baths suggests that cleanliness was not only a practical necessity but also an integral part of social interaction within this thriving African city. Photographer CM Dixon expertly captures every element from above, providing viewers with an aerial view that highlights both functionality and aesthetics. This remarkable image serves as a testament to human innovation throughout history. As we admire this snapshot from antiquity, let us reflect on how our own modern-day conveniences have evolved thanks to civilizations like Rome who recognized the importance of sanitation for overall health and well-being.
