Description
This is the last and the bigger of all the three caves and unlike the others who are facing the southeast, this one is directed to the west.
It had unique features. When it was unearthed in 1932 this cave was initiated by a type of circular vestibule, with open walls in limestone facing on one side and down the hall, partly made of thin slabs, linked with clay and superimposed on the rocky bank. The corridor was covered with slabs laid in a recess of the upper edge of the right side. It had a wall reinforcement, a big upper slab serving as mainstay.
Once there was a fourth cave but it was located on private land. Having lost contact with it is believed that is not destroyed but could be buried again.
