Description

Morphology

Small cave with its entrance protected by a dry-stone wall. Formed by a single short chamber.

In the absence of a survey, the exact dimensions of this cavity are unknown.

History

We imagine it has been known since ancient times. Everything suggests it has been used as a shelter or refuge by shepherds. It has never been mentioned in the speleological literature.
