Peskő Cave, Archaeological cave in Felsőtárkány, Hungary
The cave extends 62 meters in length and features an entrance measuring 8 meters in height and 2 meters in width at 752 meters elevation.
Archaeological excavations in 1912 by Jenő Hillebrand, supported by the Hungarian Geological Society's Speleological Committee, revealed significant prehistoric artifacts and fossils.
The cave contained tools from the Upper Paleolithic Aurignacian culture, implements from the Neolithic Bükk culture, and artifacts from the Bronze Age Kyjatice culture.
The cave remains accessible for visitors under the management of Bükki National Park Directorate, with legal protections established through environmental regulations.
Researchers discovered over 400 cave bear fossil bones and remains from 24 different animal species within the cave's sediment layers.
