Abstract
The paper deals with the three most important thermal springs in ancient Dacia, on which part of the religious life of the province centred. The available source material makes it possible to determine which deities received the most worship among the visitors enjoying the pleasures of Ad Mediam, Ad Aquas, and Germisara. The collected sources also let us find out what groups of the province’s inhabitants were treated in those extremely popular centres, referred to by many researchers as ancient spa resorts.

期刊介绍:
Acta Archaeologica Lodziensia is the oldest archaeological journal in the Lodz research center. It has been published as an annual for more than half a century. A rich variety of subjects, which are showing current research possibilities and new trends in archeology, characterizes published texts. Articles dedicated to issues of link between archeology and other disciplines (mainly: history, history of science and technology, architecture, art history) are often inserted. Chronological frameworks embrace a wide time range from the Stone Age to the present day.
