What is the difference between a steam room and a caldarium?

A steam room is a room heated to around 100 F (40 C) with steam. The room is usually constructed to be nearly air tight, and it operates at about 100% humidity. A caldarium is the hottest room in the traditional Roman bath house. It was heated by allowing hot gasses to travel beneath the floor and through special channels in the walls. Many times the caldarium would also have a tub of heated water inside of it. The caldarium does not necessarily have a high humidity, and may have a higher temperature than a steam room could because of the lower humidity.
