Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

A dry cave entrance without identified shape or dimensions faces an inexplicable direction (Sheen & Ende 2007.02.12 Mss: B2) and is surmised to function as a seasonal swallet (insurgence, sink). SITUATION 1: According to Sheen & Ende (2007.02.12 Mss: B2), the cave -B2- occupies the same space as the -B1- cave. SITUATION 2: According to the quick and easy GPS positions recorded by Sheen & Ende (2007.02.12 Mss: B1, 2007.02.12 Mss: B2), this B2 cave (±18 m) lies at a linear distance of 15 m due south of the B1 cave (±12 m). SITUATION 3: According to Brown et al. (2008 Mss: Meghalaya 2008 diary, Saturday 16th February), B1 lies half a kilometre south of B3 (note 1). SITUATION 3: Anonymous = Rockcliff (2008.02.16 Mss: BI) attains an understanding according to which the B2 cave lies at an unspecified distance of 15 m in an unidentified direction from the B1 cave (note 2).A dry cave entrance without identified shape or dimensions faces an inexplicable direction (Sheen & Ende 2007.02.12 Mss: B2) and is surmised to function as a seasonal swallet (insurgence, sink).
