What is the "bath barrel punishment" in ancient Rome in history?
The "bath barrel punishment" in ancient Rome was an extremely cruel criminal law. This kind of criminal law is cruel, and prisoners will experience a criminal law that falls from heaven to hell and is constantly tortured in hell. The prisoner first enjoys good care, and then slowly feels his decay in the bath bucket. This kind of criminal law, which gives people a great psychological gap, is a great torture to the prisoner's body and mind.

We all know that there were ten kinds of torture in ancient China, but torture was not a patent in ancient China. At that time, every ancient country had its own cruel criminal law, and the "bath bucket punishment" was a cruel criminal law in ancient Rome, even more cruel than some torture in ancient China. As the name implies, "bath bucket punishment" is a criminal law that puts prisoners in a bath bucket, which may make people feel whether to put prisoners in a bath bucket to bleed, but this is not the case, because "bath bucket punishment" is much more cruel than we thought.

The purpose of "bath barrel punishment" in ancient Rome is not to bleed, but to make people slowly rot, and a living human body will slowly rot by itself. When the victim was just executed, he almost felt heaven. The person subjected to execution only needs to sit in a sealed bath bucket, and someone will take care of his diet every day. It seems to be a happy process, but what is hidden behind this criminal law is hell. Although the prisoner is taken care of, he will excrete in this sealed bucket, and the excrement will slowly rot and produce maggots. The prisoner's body will slowly rot and be eroded in the excrement, but the prisoner will not die immediately, and can only slowly experience the feeling of suffering in hell. The psychological state of the prisoner when he died is unimaginable.

The method of "bath bucket punishment" makes it not one of the above. Another torture process is that someone smears honey on the victim to attract more bugs, and the bugs will crawl into the body through the victim's five senses under the attraction of honey. Victims have to endure not only external decay, but also the pain of reptiles inside. This shows how terrible the "bath bucket punishment" is.
