Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 27/03/2016

An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) is said to give access to a solitary, domed cave chamber (BÄUMLER, G 1998: 6). ETYMOLOGY: No autochthonous, indigenous or locally known name has been identified (if it exists) for this cave with a solitary chamber shaped like a dome (note 1). SITUATION: About 60 m south-west along the cliff from the cave entrance to the first Krem –>Dieniung and at the base of the same sandstone-capped cliff.
