Tsona Cave

Tsona Cave is an archaeological site at the head of the river Qvirila in proximity of village Tson in the Java Municipality in Shida Kartli in Georgia [1]. The site is close to the Bouba-Kakheri pass at south of the Caucasus range [1]. Tsona Cave was discovered by A. Kalandadze in 1958 [1]. It was excavated by Kalandadze, Tushabramishvili and later by Z. Kikodze [1]. The cave is located at 2100 m above sea level and therefore it is one of the highest archaeological cave sites in the country [1]. Excavations at the site revealed Lower and Middle Paleolithic archaeological remains [1].
