A pothole with a fluted shaft and a low chamber, overrun with sheep and goat bones, opened in massive limestone beds.
Descrizione
Morfologia
An entrance (0.8 m x 0.7 m) leads after Un short narrow passage to Un pretty fluted shaft. It opens at the top of a low chamber (10 m x 4 m). To the South and higher up opens Un embryonic gallery, quickly impassable. This very regular shaft ends in a steep, choked constriction. A passage in the wall allows reaching a choked chimney.
This cavity, unlike the Trou du Duc, does not open in dolomites but in massive limestone beds, which explains its difference in morphology.
Progressione
To the South-East, Un steep passage through the scree allows access to Un small vestibule in which Un other shaft opens.
Altri dettagli
This rather pretty pothole unfortunately serves as a charnel house. Indeed, the scree cone of the entrance chamber consists essentially of hundreds of bones, mostly sheep and goats. These bones are present up to the slope of the vestibule and moreover at the bottom of the second shaft.
