The lead says "said by many to be the oldest continuously-used road in the United States of America", but some Euro-American roadbeds evolved on high-traffic Indian trails, so there are probably dozens or hundreds of roads in the U.S. whose origins can't be chronologically compared at all. One could argue to exclude trails, but the difference between a road and a trail in, for example, the 17th century may be too blurry for that. Both were well-beaten paths. Anyway, I didn't change the article and can't currently think of how that would best be done. Just recording here some food for thought. — ¾-1021:49, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
