A bath house and a tannery. I read that as tanning (salon).

Will the planned Archaeopark include the delightful odors of many tanneries, the pretty blood red color of the Hatip Stream, and the mountains of rotting offal nearby?

Funny how the Romans had the hygiene thing all figured out, yet by medieval times it had all been forgotten.
