There are around 800 figures carved into the rock of the cave. Many are human figures, some of which have wings or horns.[1] The site has been dated to between 100 and 400 A.D., based on excavations and geological data.[1] The cave itself is around 7m deep and made of soft hyaloclastite, which is why the figures could be carved by abrasion and then polished.[1]
