The tunnel vault of the first room of the bath is divided by reddish bands into lozenges which contain an agglomeration of isolated scenes derived from pastoral life. They include a deer, a gazelle, a camel without hump, and two long-necked birds. At the apex of the vaulting appear depictions of men, apparently of different generations.
