The Cardo

The main street North/South, in Roman times, was called Cardo.
In Jerusalem we walked part of the Cardo underground

There were shops. This piece of art had the whole book of Deuteronomy written in Hebrew. Artwork like this was appropiately called "Scripture Art."

Shops with Jewish merchandise.

The Cardo at the first century level, with first century pavement.

We walked on it.
