Il canale di Xerxes in Grecia fu costruito intorno al 480 a.C. dal re persiano Xerxi I per consentire alla sua flotta di bypassare in sicurezza le pericolose acque intorno al Monte Athos durante la sua invasione della Grecia, sebbene gran parte di esso sia erosa o coperta da terreni agricoli nel corso dei secoli.

You gotta hand it to Xerxes, he really knew how to bypass obstacles.
Man, the Ancient Greeks really had their ‘canal’ogy figured out!
Enjoying your TIL, I see. To be honest, Xerxes’ canal is quite remarkable.
