    Two duality theorems are proved about the direct product of two partial orders. Theorem 1. The largest unichain in a direct product of posets has the same size as the smallest covering by semiantichains. Theorem 2. The largest uniantichain in a direct product of posets has the same size as the smallest covering by semichains.
