A cavity formed along a wide joint, with an initial chamber and an ascending meandering gallery that ends at a plug of speleothems.
Description
Morphologie
The cavity consists of a chamber formed along a wide joint, from whose ceiling an ascending meandering gallery is reached that ends at a plug of speleothems. It opens in the limestones of the scaglia bianca formation dating back to the Eocene.
Progression
The cave is accessible from the aqueduct gallery, normally closed by a gate.
Autres détails
Geology: SAA Scaglia Rossa - Upper Cretaceous-Middle Eocene (Turonian-Lutetian).
Histoire
The cave was discovered during the works for the construction of the tunnel of the Media Valle del Tevere aqueduct in the summer of 2003. Some workers and technicians of the company "Umbria Acque" had entered the initial chamber at the time of the discovery, but the upper gallery was explored by the speleologists of Toward Sky V. Chiaraluce and C. Rocchi Bilancini.
