This note considers a Late Roman bath building recently discovered in Durrës, Albania (ancient Dyrrachium), near the presumed Roman city center. This discovery is particularly interesting given our limited knowledge of the urban layout and of bathhouses during this important phase of the city. Despite the limited scope of the excavations, the layout of the complex, as well as certain architectural characteristics, suggests the use of design principles based on Imperial baths. The exclusive use of bricks is significant for this area in Late Antiquity. The imposing monumentality of the structures is comparable to baths in cities with Imperial authority. In the absence of stratified layers linked to this structure, moldmade marks on the bricks and decorative features from the marble facing provide a chronological window between the last quarter of the 4th c. and around the middle of the 5th c. CE for its construction.

罗马晚期 Dyrrachium（阿尔巴尼亚）的新浴场

这篇笔记考虑了最近在假定的罗马市中心附近的阿尔巴尼亚都拉斯（古代 Dyrrachium）发现的一座晚期罗马浴室建筑。鉴于我们在城市的这个重要阶段对城市布局和浴室的了解有限，这一发现特别有趣。尽管挖掘范围有限，但综合体的布局以及某些建筑特征表明使用了基于皇家浴场的设计原则。在古代晚期，砖块的独家使用对这一地区意义重大。这些建筑的宏伟壮丽可与拥有帝国权威的城市中的浴池相媲美。在没有与该结构相关的分层层的情况下，砖上的模制标记和大理石饰面的装饰特征提供了 4 世纪最后一个季度之间的时间窗口。大约在 5 世纪中期。CE 为其建设。
