Ephesus (Ancient Greek: Ἔφεσος, Hittite probably Apaša, Latin: Ephesus), located in Ionia, was one of the largest and most important cities in Asia Minor in ancient times and was home to the Temple of Artemis (Artemision), one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The ruins of Ephesus are located today near Selçuk, approximately 70 km south of Izmir on Turkey's west coast (Aegean Sea). The Turkish name of the current excavation site is Efes. In 2015, Ephesus was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephesos

The Roman Latrine of Ephesus was built in the 1st century AD as part of what would become the Baths of Scholastica. They were the city's public toilets for poor citizens who could not afford a toilet at home, and an entrance fee was charged. However, the latrines were not used exclusively for relieving oneself. In Roman culture, this building served the same social purpose as the baths. Citizens would stay in the latrines for long periods of time to relax and discuss their daily worries. The latrinas were a fairly advanced and civilized structure for their time. The building was built over a canal with a continuous flow of water. The seats were marble benches with holes in the bottom. They were arranged in three rows along the three sides of the room. There were 48 toilets in total, each separated by carved partitions that doubled as armrests. The seats themselves were surrounded by columns that would have supported a roof. https://www.ephesusturkey.com/ephesus-highlights/latrinas/
