Deep Folk Crossing is a Dwemer ruin and landmark located in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It is an ancient Dwemer bridge located north east of Markarth and west of Mor Khazgur. It lies close to the border of High Rock.
History
Originally, this was the location of the Dwemer city of Bthar-zel, which translates to "allied city",[1] however only the bridge and a few ruins remain. The name "Deep Folk" is the translation of the word "Dwemer",[2] however it's unknown if this alludes to anything other than the origin of the bridge itself.
