Descrizione
Morfologia
The cavity consists of a single gallery 26 metres long with an average cross-section of 3 x 3 metres that at the end is blocked by sediments. Worth noting is the curious erosion form that has developed on the ceiling of the gallery along its course and that has always been the reason for giving this name to the cavity.
Altri dettagli
At the entrance of the cavity some works have been carried out, probably in order to use it as a shelter for shepherds or hunters.
Storia
Known forever by the local people. Legend says that a monk, tired of the serpent eating all the donkeys that transported food, loaded one of them with loaves filled with sharpened knives. When the snake ate the donkey its guts were torn. On the ceiling of the cave the mark of its spine can be seen.
