Description

Morphology

A not very wide rock shelter, with a stepped profile due to the degradation of the strata, losing height on the deeper side.

No survey is available and therefore the exact dimensions of the cavity are unknown.

History

Certainly known since remote times, but unpublished in speleological catalogues.
