An incredible archaeological discovery was made in north Greece, as an ancient Roman bath more than 1600 years old was unearthed while digging a new metro station. <br /><br />The 4th century AD Roman baths were found in Thessaloniki, and were discovered during excavations of Thessaloniki's metro station in Hagia Sophia on December 12. <br /><br />These formed part of a subterranean space that allowed rudimentary underfloor heating, with the single uncovered stone bath measuring 5.60m by 4.40m and weighing 50 tons. <br /><br />The metro workers in Thessaloniki have been making regular archaeological finds this past year while excavating new tunnels under the city, with a substantial find in April 2018.
