The complex consists of two rooms, originally separated by a crude clay brick wall, which was probably plastered.

It was probably covered by a terracotta roof, in line with a building technique which was very common in the city from its foundation (examples in the Bosco Littorio archaeological area).

The second group (2 on the plan) consists of twenty-two tubs arranged in a circle on a conglomerate pavement, but they were all damaged by the destruction of the site and may never have been completed.

The complex, the only example of its type in Sicily, has parallels only in Delphi, Colophon, Olympia, and Gortys [de].

[2] The structural similarity and the items discovered (perfume bottles, Italic and Punic amphorae, as well as Syracusan, Geloan and Siculo-Punic coins from the time of Timoleon) all help to date the site between the fourth and third centuries BC.
