A piece of press release that the IAA Team described this Roman road:
'About 2000 years ago, most domestic routes were strongly built. However, in the period of ancient Rome, due to the need to march, move military campaigns and networks, the road system was more popular than ever. The Roma government recognizes the importance of the roads in managing its empire. From the main roads to the secondary roads, in addition to traveling, it is also a place to cultivate agricultural products such as series of seeds, oil and wine along secondary roads, around connected villages connected to the main roads in Israel ".
Under the sidewalk rock of the Roman road at Shemesh, the archaeological group also discovered many coins of the Roman dynasty of King Judea, Pontius Pilate (dated 29 AD), a coin of King Judei Agrippa I (year great 41 AD), a coin from the second year of the great revolt (67 AD) and a coin dating back to the Umayyad period (circa 661-750 AD).
