In this cavity, some authors of the most recent catalogues of the area have confused it with the avenc de Sant Jordi. Although Jeannel and Racovitza in 1912 already made clear that these are two different cavities, referring to the fact that the Forat Bufador has a very narrow entrance and that it is very close to the ermita.

This cavity has been known to the people of Camarasa since time immemorial; in fact, during the pilgrimage held on the feast day of Sant Jordi, the children's entertainment was to throw stones into it.
