DATING 16th and 17th centuries HISTORICAL/SCIENTIFIC/ARTISTIC INFORMATION
The name of the cave comes from the use of it as a hiding place for bandits. The cave was formed due to a slow and constant erosive action exerted by the sea millions of years ago. The cavity opens up in the carbonate formation known as “Val Tanarello’s limestone”. This limestone was deposited in a low sea environment on the continental shelf between 140 and 150 million years ago. The cave is located at an altitude of about 60m from the Aurelia, therefore about 70m above current sea level.
