ETYMOLOGY: No autochthonous, indigenous or locally known name has been identified or, for that matter, was attempted to identify for what a passing outsider christened Confusion Sink (Brown, M W undated 2007.02.09 Mss).

APPROACH: To reach the cave, Brown, M W undated 2007.02.09 Mss: Confusion Sink) commands: Follow stream bed down from path crossing at 25°18'05”N: 92°29'31.9”E where the stream enters karst pinnacles / breakdown. It sinks into a boulder choke. Very approx. ±400 m 25°18'00”N: 92°19'15””E (Brown, M W undated2007.02.09 Mss). CAVE DESCRIPTION: Boulder choke with strong draught enters gravel choke at base level (Brown, M W undated 2007.02.09 Mss ). PROSPECTS: Brown, M W (2007.02.09 Mss) simply commands: DIG with capital letters. CAVE CLIMATE: An inward air current at an unidentified time on 9th February 2007 was understood to represent a strong draught enters gravel choke at base level (Brown, M W undated 2007.02.09 Mss).2007.02.09 Mss).
