    I dont think so. Not in this case at least. They gave up digging in the hard rock and instead made a limestone road to drive them on dry surface.

    This is the Corinth canal but before it was made the paved road for transporting ships was called Diolkos

      I know. I was just expanding on the other persons joke (I assume he joked). :)

      You are a good person for being this patient and sharing your knowledge.
