"For 42 years of the rule this man did quite a bit for a home town, but his reconstruction of portage of Diolkos (Greek for "haul across"), glorified through an Isthmus of Corinth (from Greek ισθμός, isthmos). In place of old rolling portage of Isthmus adorned oneself (Krämer Walter. Geheimnis der Feme. Leipzig — Jena — Berlin, 1979.) a glaring marble ribbon, connecting both exterminating and sharply multiplying a carrying capacity. Marble Diolkos appeared since Periander were first who decided to dig a channel through an Isthmus, but then, when he was argued (prolly by egyptian geometers) that connection of two seas is fraught the submergence of Peloponnesse, gave up this undertaking. River-bed to the floor of the tunnelled channel it was laid out flags, and ports of Corinth (Kehreos and Leheos) are built in both seas, and fleets stood in each of them."
