Caves have been used for shelter and storage since the time

of prehistoric man.  People explore caves to hunt for fossils,

wall pictures, and pottery.

     Beautiful stone icicles, called stalactites, hang from the walls

and ceilings of limestone caves.  As water drips through the

cracks in the cave's roof, it carries with it minerals which form

the stalactites.  The stalagmites are also very beautiful.  These

rise from the floor of the cave and are caused by water dripping
