Largest US cave figures, about 1,000 years old, discovered in Alabama
The largest cave figures in North America have been discovered in Alabama as a result of advanced photography. In a study published on Tuesday in the journal Antiquity, researchers revealed that a cave in the northern Alabama countryside is home to carvings dating back about 1,000 years. Experts estimate that the carvings were made during the Woodland period. The carvings, some of which extend up to 7ft long, depict various figures, including what appears to be people wearing Native American garments such as headdresses and carrying a rattle or weapon.
