Description
Morphology
It is 3 metres wide and 3 metres deep, with a maximum height of 2 metres. It is closed by a wall, about 40 cm thick, with a door. On the outer part there are 5 holes intended for fitting beams and a longitudinal incision for supporting the roof, which would considerably increase the space.
Other details
If it had been inhabited, the fire would be made outside, since inside the cave there is no soot.
History
Known since time immemorial.
