单词	nymphaeum
释义	nymphaeum /nɪmˈfiːəm / noun (plural nymphaea) A grotto or shrine dedicated to a nymph or nymphs.The spring itself, the pool into which it drains, and the nymphaeum dedicated to the Imperial Cult are essentially as they were in the Roman period, though remodelled by Mareschal.... Until the mid-1st century ad, these were used almost exclusively in fountains and nymphaea, or grottoes, which acted as cool retreats and so had a place in almost every villa. I would have liked a model of the room with couches and diners in place, showing just how they looked and what they were looking at: both the mosaics on the floor and the view out to the nymphaeum. Origin Via Latin from Greek.
