Description
Morphology
An opening about 80 centimetres in diameter leads to a 6-metre shaft. The shaft begins as a tube but soon opens out forming a dome. The base is a small chamber 2.6 x 4 metres, formed, like the shaft, along a fracture. The floor of the chamber is covered with sediment with a high organic content that gives it a black colour, along with some stones and remains of mammal bones. At the two ends of the chamber there are two hollows, the result of a dig carried out in January 2018.
History
Discovered by members of the UEC – Tortosa on the day of Kings in 2018 (reixos in the Terres de l'Ebre and País Valencià). The following week (13-1-2018) and with the help of Luis Almela (ECC) they carried out the survey and digging work, although these do not seem very promising.
