Research focused on caves, helps us travel through time and leads us to the initial point of spileogenesis millions of years ago. We have the oppurtunity to study the genesis, the evolution and the death of a cave. Moreover, we are able to admire the living organisms of that cave and discover how something beautiful and admirable like a stalactite can be created only by a little raindrop. Finally, we process the collected information, who helps us learn about the speleoclima and the conditions under which the cave was first created. How were stalactites, stalagmites and other speleothems created?
