Baths of Agrippa. The Baths of Agrippa were the earliest great baths of Rome. It was a large hot air bath built in 25 BC built by Agrippa, a friend of the Emperor Augustus. When he died, he left the bath to the people of Rome. They did burn, but were restored by Titus or Domitian and later again by Constantius. This bath was also near the Pantheon.
