Summary
A section of the Titus Tunnel of Seleucia Pieria. It is believed that the tunnel/canal complex, measuring 1350-1400m in total lenght, was dug to divert the nearby river and prevent the harbour from silting up with time. A further reason is assumed to be to help reduce flooding caused during heavy winter rains.
