This season’s excavations focused on the area of the niche to the rear of the cave where, during the previous campaigns, a middle Bronze Age funerary complex was identified. Two main layers were identified in this sector (2018-2010 campaigns): a hardened layer formed by a yellowish-brown sediment with a sandy-silt matrix, denominated layer 2, and above it a loose layer containing numerous limestone clasts, denominated layer 1. This layer comprised a series of sub-layers (1/1, 1/2g, 1/2b, 1/3a, 1/3b), all sterile with the exception of 1/2b and the base of 1/3b. Layer 1/2b was characterized by the presence of cultural elements (pottery, amber and glass-paste beads), bones and teeth (the majority human). Once the sequence within layer 1 was removed, the top of layer 2 appeared across the entire excavation area, and was clearly different from the overlying layer. Layer 2 was excavated in D30/I, D30/IV and D31 was seen to comprise two sub-layers, at the top 2/1, below it 2/1b. There was little occupation evidence, mainly consisting of bone and charcoal fragments (presumably attributable to the Mesolithic period). A yellowish layer with a relatively fine matrix denominated 3/1 emerged below layer 2, but remains to be excavated.
