| Description | The DU is a long strip of land thought to contain the ancient road. It runs East-West along grape vines (DU 2194). Slight depressions in the topography and its orientation relative to the known road across the modern road led to this strip being designated as the path of the ancient road. |

| Comments (Features) | Thought to be the path of the ancient road, possibly Greek as suggested by DP. Orientation is relatively similar to other stretches of ancient road that are known. Depressed features of the topography also led to this conclusion. The road was lost just west of this DU. Searches to pick up the road further West were unsuccessful. |
