In 1979, Hans Eschebach argued that this complex would have been developed in 7 phases from a Greek palaestra with bath section of the 5th c BC into the sophisticated Roman baths that were buried by Vesuvius in AD 79.

It is demonstrated, based on a typological and historical assessment of Eschebach’s phases and on excavations carried out between 2016 and 2018, that the Stabian Baths were only built after 130/125 BC as a state-of-the-art Roman-type bath building. The conclusion provides a preliminary reconstruction of the original building
