The Cardo was built in the reign of Emperor Justinian (527-565).
The Cardo, running north to south, was the main street of Aelia Capitolina, the Roman and Byzantine city and is depicted in the Madaba map
(6th century map discovered in 1896 in the floor of a Byzantine church in the Jordanian city of Madaba).
