Structural Properties and formation : The entrance divides into two branches to the right side. One of those branches ends up with a -10 m steep descent; which can be descended by steel ladder or SRT. The other branch which is; in fact; a chimney; is accessible although it is a little bit difficult. A 10 m descent leads into a large hall. The column decoration in the middle of the hall is striking. The cave continues through a passage on the right; which can only passed by crawling. Both branches are combined again after turning around a somewhat large chamber. |
Research History: It was explored by ANMAK in 1991. |
Findings: The analysis on the potsherds uncovered during the explorations; carried out by the Language; History and Geography Faculty of the Ankara University showed that they belong to the Roman Period. Some are from a specific form known as Terra Sicilata. |
