Axlor, Protected prehistoric cave in Dima, Spain

Axlor is a cave system set within limestone rock, featuring natural chambers and passages that were shaped over millions of years. The passages wind through the stone in different directions, creating a complex underground structure.

Stone tools and human remains discovered here date back to the Middle Paleolithic, showing Neanderthal occupation. This evidence reveals that the site was an important shelter for early humans.

The cave represents a significant element in Spain's cultural heritage network, carrying the official designation of Bien de Interés Cultural for its archaeological value.

Access to the cave requires permission from local authorities and is not open to casual visits. Visitors should bring appropriate footwear, lighting, and protective equipment for exploration.

The undisturbed sediment layers here preserve evidence of human activities across roughly 50000 years. These stable layers allow researchers to trace how people used the space and how the environment changed over this vast span of time.
