We’ve known about the cave for awhile but just found the entrance! Exploration set for 2024.

Must be absolutely thrilling to explore and investigate it. I can absolutely understand the Archeologist entering in the 70's getting his mind blown by a few meters, now there is the whole thing to explore... really cool!

I’m so impressed they’ve known for so long but had the self control to wait until they have the funding etc. in place to do it right! Really looking forward to (or homophony for!) more info. about humans during the ice age.
