Ma Canal 2, 3.33 km west (bearing 271°) of Hnaberd fortress, is bracketed by Ma canal 3, 0.18km immediately to the north and by Ma Stela 1, 0.2km to the south (map quadrant B2i).
The canal is built into a gentle south-north slope. Eroded bedrock outcrops confine the eastern edge of the line.
Lined with well-shaped flagstones, this canal segment is one of the most elaborately made of the fluvial features recorded on the survey. The canal runs south to north (bearing 12°), down slope, for 160m. It is 0.6m wide and approximately 0.45m deep. There are also traces along the segment of a single poorly preserved dam of basalt construction, although it is difficult to discern if the blocks are remnants of a dam or highly disturbed flagstones. The putative dam marks a junction in the course of the canal, where the line jogs 1.5m west before resuming its southerly line.
