It cuts through the narrow Isthmus of  Corinth and separates the Peloponnesian peninsula from the Greek  mainland, thus effectively making the former an island. The builders dug  the canal through the Isthmus at sea level; no locks are employed. It  is 6.4 kilometres (4.0 mi) in length and only 21.3 metres (70 ft) wide  at its base, making it unpassable for most modern ships. It now has  little economic importance. </blockquote>
