Unveiling the Goddess Artemis in Ephesus

In a thrilling discovery that has captured the imagination of archaeologists and history enthusiasts alike, a magnificent marble statue of the revered goddess

A statue from the now underwater Roman town of Baiae.

The ancient Roman city of Baiae, on the northwest shore of the Gulf of Naples, was once a popular coastal resort famous for its idyllic location and therapeutic mineral springs that drew the likes of Julius Caesar, Nero and Caligula. But what really enticed the wealthy and the powerful to this resort town were its beach parties, the wine and the women. In Baiae, “unmarried women are common property, old men behave like young boys, and lots of young boys act like young girls,” wrote the ancient Roman scholar Marcus Terentius Varro. Others described it as a “den of licentiousness and vice” and a “vortex of luxury”. Baiae’s hedonism was as notorious as that of Las Vegas today.
