Descrizione
Morfologia
It is a shelter about 30 m long by about 5 m wide, closed by a wall about 60 cm thick, built of dry stone in the lower part, on top of which rests well over 1 m of rammed-earth wall, finished at the very top by a few courses of stonework.
Since part of the wall that closed it on the W side has fallen, it can be entered from both sides, and because it has two openings it takes on a characteristic tunnel shape.
Storia
Known since time immemorial. Archaeological finds have been made with a chronology spanning from the end of the Upper Palaeolithic to the Neolithic.
