The bath was situated opposite to the church of Anastasia, as Tiberius II (r. 574-582) revealed the name his empress in 578 as follows: "What is the name of the church [St Anastasia] which is opposite to the public bath of Dagistheus? The Augusta has the same name" (Theophanes, Chronicle; see Berger in Tocci, 2025, p. 221). What this means is that the baths of Dagistheus were opposite of the Church of St Anastasia. This church is in Region III, southwest of the Hippdrome, close to the Sokullu Mehmet Paşa Cami (Yegül, 2008, p. 181).
Also called Baths of Anastasius (see Janin, 1964, p. 217; Yegül, 2008, p. 181).
