Description
General description
It seems as if the Ghar Deo at Begri (note 1) is a man-made passage driven beneath the stream to connect to its opposite bank. In reality, however, four passages lead to a descending crawl that continues in a wide and high gallery, which, after two or three metres, turns to the left and continues, almost impenetrable due to an infilling of soil (literally: terre), as a conduit of limited size (literally: boyau), 1.5 m wide and about 40 cm high.
