Archaeological research of three caves in the Tatra Mountains in 2019-2023

This publication discusses the results of the project, which explains the mysterious lack of any traces of the Palaeolithic in the Tatra Mountains. Research undertaken in recent years in three caves - Obłazkowa and Dziura in the Polish Tatra and Hučivá diera Cave in the Slovak Tatras - have shown the destruction of sediments in Polish caves. Only in the Slovak cave was it possible to discover and partially examine a camp of the Late Paleolithic people. This discovery leads to the conclusion that during the Bölling warming of the Pleistocene, hunters operated in this cave, hunting goats and processed carcasses of hunted animals on site.
