Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

Not only two horizontal cave entrances (an upper and a lower one) but also a pothole (or daylight window) give access to what seems to be a tea-discharging resurgence or a sacred and, for that matter, a cursed cave system. IDENTITY: Unknown. Krem –>Umshuwa / Umshua is possibly in the same area and, perhaps, another name for the same cave. ETYMOLOGY: The origin, history and meaning of the cave name Krem Shasuit (Kharpran Daly, B D 2001.02.14 personal communication) has not yet been identified. It seems to signify to a -krem- (cave, hole) which -discharges- (oozes, secretes, suppurates) either a kind of tea (note 1) or pagan deity regarded as a demon (note 2). SITUATION: Unknown. Somewhere in the vicinity of Mooknor (Kharpran Daly, B D 2001.02.14 personal communication), also Moo Knor (25°23'27”N: 92°36'16”E (Arbenz T 2013.03.16 dated ”2012.04.30” cave distribution map Pala relief13 2.pdf). CULTURAL HISTORY: Krem Shasuid near Muknor seems to be associated with an (unknown) religiousfolklore and legend. It may represent a Pagan temple cave sacred to a god or goddess accepting libations -- unless the whole story is made up to get a cup of tea poured.Not only two horizontal cave entrances (an upper and a lower one) but also a pothole (or daylight window) give access to what seems to be a tea-discharging resurgence or a sacred and, for that matter, a cursed cave system.
