Baths of Trajan
The Terme di Traiano (English: Baths of Trajan) is a location that appears in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.
The Terme are the baths of Ancient Rome, built between 104 and 109, and named after the Roman Emperor Trajan. Commissioned by the Emperor, the complex of baths occupied space on the southern side of the Oppian Hill on the outskirts of what was then the main developed area of the city, although still inside the boundary of the Servian Wall. The architect of the complex is said to be Apollodorus of Damascus. After being utilized mainly as a recreational and social center by Roman citizens, both men and women, for many years, the baths, in use as late as the early fifth century seem to have been deserted at the time of the siege of Rome by the Goths in 537; with the destruction of the Roman aqueducts the thermae were abandoned, and the whole of the now-waterless Mons Oppius.
In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, the Golden Palace of Nero exists beneath the Terme, which appears as a Lair of Romulus.
