Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) was said to give access to a noteworthy but unidentified cave with unknown whereabouts (Anonymous [Brooks, S J et al.] 2014.04.05 Mss: Diary Meghalaya 2014 Second Edit: 8th February, Saturday). ETYMOLOGY: The origin, history and meaning of the apparently Synteng Khasi (Pnar) cave name Krem Sakwe was not understood by expedition cavers (Anonymous [Arbenz T, Brooks S J et al.] 2015.04.03 Mss: Diary 2015.docx; Anonymous [Brooks, S J et al.] 2014.04.05 Mss: Diary Meghalaya 2014 Second Edit).SITUATION: Unknown. Somewhere in the vicinity of Umkyrpong (25°26'04”N: 92°34'48”E: 782 m) in an unspecified setting and at an unknown location (Anonymous [Brooks, S J et al.] 2014.04.05 Mss). PROSPECTS 2014.02.08: Due to the team departing the next day … caves have to remain just names on the “to do” list (Anonymous [Brooks, S J et al.] 2014.04.05 Mss).
