Men Ithilien (S. "Ithilien Road") was the main road that ran north to south through Ithilien until it joined the Hyarmentie and the Poros river at Athrad Poros. The Men Ithilien was constructed by Isildur Elendilion during the first years after the founding of the- Realms-in-Exile in order to facilitate the movement of soldiers to the southernmost boundary of his domain.The stone used to build the road was quarried from the nearby Ephel Dúath. The manpower needed to lay so long an extent of paved road was immense, and the Men Ithilien took several years to complete.
