From Ancient Greek [Term?].

helios (plural helioses)

(historical) A sunroom or solarium of the Ancient Greeks.
- 1925, Hobart Amory Hare, Progressive Medicine, page 219:
  The Greeks had their helioses and the Romans their solaria; yet heliotherapy has as yet scarcely emerged from the most empiric of performances into the dignity of a scientifically justified or rationalized procedure.
- 1933, Frank Hammond Krusen, Light Therapy, page 4:
  The Greeks and Romans constructed in their homes special sun parlors (called helioses or thermae).
