The vast cave of Loltum is entered by ‘great well-like holes in the north, through which one descends by ladders from ledge to ledge, arriving in immense rocky chambers whose floors are covered with stalagmites and cave earth, and from whose lofty roofs depend vast stalactites. Two of these holes are a mile apart. From the great chambers unexplored passages branch out in every direction.’
