Aquae Calidae, Bulgaria well as from Kabyle, Mesambria (now Nessebar), Odessos, Histria, Tomis, Byzantium, Abdera, Maroneia and the islands of the Aegean, the oldest from Apollonia Pontica from the 5th century BC. The first baths at the Sanctuary of the Three Nymphs originated when the Roman Empire under Lucullus conquered the region, during the Third Mithridatic War in 72 BC. Under Trajan (98-117) nearby Anchialos became the administrative centre of the region and the baths were expanded and extended with two more swimming pools. During this time the Via Pontica was built connecting Constantinople via Deultum, Anchialos, Aquae Calidae with Dorostorum and Sexaginta
Aquae Sulis cuamiun ai" "The affixed – Deuina, Deieda, Andagin, (and) Uindiorix – I have bound" An alternative translation based on a much better knowledge of the Celtic languages is the following: "May I, Windiorix for/at Cuamena defeat (alt. "summon to justice") the worthless woman, oh divine Deieda." (Alt. "Divine Deiada, may I, Windiorix, bring to justice/defeat (in court) the woman at Cuamena".) This is a superior, though still uncertain, translation in that it takes into account the nominal cases of the nouns: "Windiorix" (alt. "Windorix") - nominative masculine (subject), lit. "fair-headed" ("windo") "king" ("rix"); "Dewina Deieda" - nominative/vocative feminine "divine Deieda"
