Beneath the waters of the Gulf of Naples lies Baiae — once the most luxurious city in the Roman Empire.
Emperors bathed here. Philosophers condemned it. Politicians plotted here.
And then, over centuries, the ground began to move.
Not through sudden destruction.
Not through fire.
But through bradyseism — the slow sinking of land above the restless Campi Flegrei supervolcano.
In 2024 and 2025, new underwater discoveries reshaped our understanding of Baiae, including the identification of a thermal complex believed to be linked to Cicero and the restoration of a monumental opus sectile marble floor.
This is not just the story of a lost city.
It is the story of how geology quietly defeats permanence.
Baiae remains suspended between sea and memory.
