Taking a Dive into Bath

I went to see the Roman baths in, you guessed it, Bath.

The baths and temple were a social and religious ground more than 2,000 years ago. The waters were thought to have healing power.

Dr. William Oliver wrote in A Dissertation on the The Bath Waters: ”If they can’t be cured by drinking and bathing here, they will never be cured anywhere.”

This got me wondering: What do we have in modern society that serves a very base function that will wow our ancestors? What will our narrative be?
