RafaRoman clothing was cleaned by people called fullers. Urine was an important ingredient used in their cleaning process, along with other things. The actual process is unclear and there is no known "cleaning recipe" that can be pointed to. It is also unclear if they had a standard mixture of ingredients or if each fuller had his own special blend.

When was the first toilet that flushed invented?
In ancient Egypt
Where did ancient Egyptians use the toilet?
Ancient Egypt used the toilets in a tolle but not a ordinary toilet. --- Ancient Egypt was among the first civilisations to employ running water toilets. This was generally in a back room of the house and had a stream plumbed to run under a grated box in the corner of the room. Where running water was not available they would use a stone box which was slopped out. Another type of toilet was the wooden commode (a chair with a hole in it) which was used when the Pharaoh was out on campaign. It is very likely that the Romans learned what they knew of plumbing from the Egyptians. See the pictures below for photos.
Why did the Romans use urine to wash clothes?
the ancient rome used something disguisting which was "urine" to clean their clothes. they use to have a bucket outside their houses and anyone could come and actually do their toilet and come back... and when the bucket goes full someone had to go and walk in the bucket of urine and keep and steping on the clothes..
Did the Romans invent the first flushing toilet?
The ancient Romans did have a sewer system, but it wasn't necessarily flushing. They simply had outhouses positioned over open sewer lines with running water in them. This effectively transported the waste away from the sewer, but I wouldn't call that flushing. 2800 years ago from this day, King Menos from Crete supposedly had a water closet that could flush.
