- Summary:
- Archeological Investigations by Gerard Fowke explores the geological structure of caves and examines the life of the "cave-dwellers". Certain conditions are to be taken into account in deciding whether a cave afforded a desirable permanent shelter to primitive man. It should be accessible; the floor should be dry, at least fairly level, and sufficiently free from large rocks to allow the inmates to move about freely; the entrance should be large enough to permit free passage and to light the interior to a distance that would insure protection from the elements.
