Cardo
The cardo was the main north–south-oriented street in Ancient Roman cities, military camps, and coloniae. ==Description== The cardo, an integral component of city planning, was lined with shops and vendors, and served as a hub of economic life. The main cardo was called ''cardo maximus''. Most Roman cities also had a Decumanus Maximus, an east-west street that served as a secondary main street. Due to varying geography, in some cities the decumanus is the main street and the cardo is secondary, but in general the cardo maximus served as the primary road. The Forum was normally located at the intersection of the Decumanus and the Cardo. The cardo was the "hinge" or axis of the city, derived from the same root as cardinal.
