| Description | In all rooms of the cave late neolithic pottery was found, but it was mixed with pottery up to MM IIB and was probably transferred into the cave in MM IIB. Therefore there is no evidence of the usage of the cave in the Neolithic, only in front of the cave there probably was a neolithic settlement. |
