Descrizione
Morfologia
The cavity is formed by two entrances about 20 metres apart from each other, both galleries nearly parallel and with a horizontal ceiling, kept joined at the inner end. The more easterly of them appears as an ascending gallery 32 metres long in a SE-NW direction and rises up to +18 metres with respect to the entrance; it continues as a crawlway in a S direction 5 metres long until coming out at the other gallery, which forms a vertical drop of 10 metres.
Concrezioni
Some flowstone and flags stand out in the upper part and eastern gallery.
Storia
Cavity long known by the inhabitants of the area. At the beginning of the 60s of the last century uncontrolled archaeological interventions were carried out there. In 1973 two archaeological test pits were carried out, and in 1974 an archaeological operation was carried out that had no continuity due to lack of economic support. Speleologically, it was explored by members of the GE Mollet during the 70s and 80s of the last century. Between 1983 and 1985 a continuous excavation work was carried out; it is an important archaeological site.
