Summary
[edit]DescriptionRemains of Nero's Isthmus Canal in 1881 (cropped).jpg |
Deutsch: Überreste von Neros Projekt, einen Kanal durch den Isthmus von Korinth zu stechen (67 n. Chr.). Die dunkel schraffierten Bereiche markieren die antiken Aushubarbeiten. Die senkrechten Schächte im Bild unten dienten den Römern zur Begutachtung des Steinmaterials in der Tiefe. Die Karte wurde vom Chefingenieur des modernen Kanalprojekts Bela Gerster 1881 bei der Erkundung der Landenge angefertigt.
English: Remains of Nero's aborted project to cut through the Isthmus of Corinth (67 AD). The Roman digging is indicated by the dark shaded areas. The vertical shafts in the cross section below were excavated by the Romans to probe the stone material. The map was drawn by chief engineer Bela Gerster in 1881 during his survey for the modern canal. |
