Archeological research has uncovered another treasure of the ancient Roman city of Pompeii: a large private bathhouse.
考古研究发现了古罗马城市庞贝的又一件珍宝：一座大型私人浴场。
The explosion of Mount Vesuvius in 70 AD buried Pompeii in thick ash, wreckage, and lava, or hot liquid rock.
公元70年维苏威火山的爆发将庞贝城掩埋在厚厚的火山灰、残骸和熔岩，也就是炽热的液态岩石之下。
Archeologists are continuing to find remains of the city under the ground.

The bathhouse was part of a large private house, the scientists said.
科学家们说，这个澡堂是一座大型私人住宅的一部分。
The bathhouse holds a series of rooms that would have provided hot, warm, or cold conditions.
浴场内有多个房间，可提供热、温或冷的沐浴条件。
The art and design of the complex, including mosaic works, also suggest the owner was wealthy.
这座建筑群的艺术和设计，包括马赛克作品，也表明主人非常富有。
“We have here perhaps the largest thermal complex in a private house in Pompeii,” said Gabriel Zuchtriegel, director of the Pompeii Archaeological Park.
庞贝考古公园主任加布里埃尔·祖赫特里格尔说：“我们这里可能拥有庞贝私人住宅中最大的热力建筑群。”
He explained that Pompeii’s powerful and wealthy set up large spaces at their homes to hold major gatherings for ceremonies and other purposes.
他解释说，庞贝城的权贵们会在宅邸中辟出宽敞的空间，用来举办仪式及其他目的的大型聚会。
“It was an opportunity to show the wealth in which they lived and also to have a nice thermal treatment," he said.
他说：“这是一个展示他们生活财富的机会，同时也是一种很好的温泉疗养。”
The baths were unearthed in the so-called Regio IX, a large central area of Pompeii Park that is still unexplored.
这些浴场是在所谓的第九区被发掘出来的，这是庞贝公园中心一个尚未探索的大型区域。
Recently, archeologists working in the same area found a bakery, a laundry and two homes.
最近，在同一地区工作的考古学家发现了一家面包店、一家洗衣店和两处住宅。
They also found the bones of three people who died in the volcanic burst.
他们还发现了三名在火山爆发中丧生者的遗骸。
Pompeii was not the only city destroyed in the explosion.
庞贝并不是这次爆炸中唯一被摧毁的城市。
It also buried the city of Herculaneum.

Zuchtriegel said wealthy citizens of Pompeii often would first take a bath and then attend a banquet, or a big meal.
祖赫特里格尔说，庞贝城的富裕市民通常会先沐浴，然后参加宴会或享用大餐。
The private thermal complex permitted them to do so together at the home where the banquet was held.
私人温泉设施允许他们在举办宴会的家中一起享受。
“There is room for about 30 people who could do the whole routine, and that could also be done in public baths. So there is the caldarium, a very warm environment, and also a large tub with cold water,” he said.
他说：“大约可以容纳30人进行整套流程，这也可以在公共浴场里完成。所以这里有高温浴室，一个非常温暖的环境，还有一个盛冷水的大浴缸。”
