Description
Morphology
A shelter cave of regular dimensions. We do not have a survey and therefore do not know the specific dimensions of the cavity.
Speleothems
The ceiling is blackened by soot.
Other details
An old dry-stone wall must have served to pen the livestock inside the shelter cave. The ceiling blackened by soot tells us of shepherds' evening gatherings, sheltered from the night dew.
History
Certainly known for a long time by the good connoisseurs of the Montsià.
