Excavations at the ancient baths of San Casciano dei Bagni in Italy have revealed a significant discovery in Mediterranean archaeology. The site contains over two dozen bronze statues and busts, as well as bronze anatomical figures, suggesting that the site was not only a place of worship but also a center of medicine. The artifacts date back to a period of transition from Etruscan to Roman rule, challenging the accepted history of the time. The presence of thermal mineral water at the site and the association of springs with healing in ancient Roman and Etruscan cultures further support the idea that San Casciano was a site of healing.
