“…The excavations at the Byzantine city of Amorium have since 1998 concentrated on exposing part of the so-called enclosure in the lower city (Lightfoot et al 2001: 381-94, figs H-J, 13-20;2003: 288-91, figs B, 13, 15-19;2004: 356-63, figs B-C, 1-11;forthcoming).

This article discusses the various ways in which the hot {caldarium) and warm (tepidariurri) rooms of Roman and Byzantine bathhouses were provided with a wall heating system to complement the underfloor or hypocaust system. Several different methods were devised to create cavities in the walls through which hot air could rise. In some cases a combination of the different methods was used. One of the longest-lasting and widespread methods involved the use of terracotta spacers -small hollow terracotta tubes that were placed as wedges between the main outer wall and the inner revetted wall surface. At Amorium in Phrygia excavations of a small public bathhouse, dating to the sixth-ninth centuries AD, have brought to light a large number of these spacers, together with a few examples of much simpler spacers made out of re-used tile. Examples of both types are described in detail in an accompanying catalogue.
