Molochnyi Kamin, Ancient cave in Tiachiv Raion, Ukraine
The Molochnyi Kamin cave extends 92 meters in length across two tiers, containing multiple passages and halls within its limestone structure.
Scientists discovered this cave in 1972, revealing evidence of human habitation during the Stone Age period between 1.5 million and 10,000 years BC.
The artifacts found inside the cave demonstrate the daily activities of ancient Troglodytes who utilized this space as their primary dwelling 20,000 years ago.
The cave entrance sits within a beech forest and requires special permission to visit, as it falls under protected status within the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve.
White calcium carbonate solution seeps from the limestone walls, creating the milky appearance that inspired the cave's name, Molochnyi Kamin.
