Cardo Maximus
This Roman road was the main north-south street in Jerusalem,
and this part was uncovered in the Jewish Quarter. It was built during
the reign of the emperor Justinian (527-565) as a continuation of the
earlier, Roman, northern part, and linked the two main churches of Byzantine
Jerusalem the Holy Sepulcher and the Nea Church.
