Damjili Cave, Prehistoric cave in Gazakh District, Azerbaijan.

The cave extends from Dash Salahli village to the Khram River, featuring limestone walls through which water flows in natural patterns.

Archaeological excavations between 1956 and 1958 revealed 7,000 stone tools and 2,000 animal bones from different historical periods.

Research teams discovered evidence of continuous human habitation from the Middle Paleolithic through the Bronze Age, including tools and fire remnants.

The cave maintains a consistent temperature throughout the year and contains a natural spring that forms from water trickling through the rock.

Scientists found tools made from flint and obsidian, indicating the presence of both Neanderthal and early human populations in this location.
