Obłazowa Cave, Archaeological cave in Nowa Biała, Poland.

The cave extends 9 meters in length with a corridor leading to a main chamber within the nature reserve of Przełom Białki.

Archaeological excavations initiated in 1985 revealed ten distinct occupation layers, including six associated with Neanderthal presence and four with modern humans.

Researchers discovered a 15,000-year-old sandstone female figurine measuring 55 millimeters in height during excavations conducted between 2016 and 2017.

The Nowy Targ commune is developing an Archaeological Park to present research findings and make the site accessible to visitors.

The site yielded the oldest known boomerang made from mammoth tusk, along with the earliest Homo sapiens bones discovered in Poland.
