The Domica cave is a karst cave situated on the south-western border of the Silicka planina Plateau 10 km south-east of Plesivec in the Rožňava District of the Košice Region in southern Slovakia [1]. The cave is well known for its complex structure and high density of speleothems [1]. Jaroslav Böhm directed excavations during the 1930s [1]. Human presence has been documented dating back to the Paleolithic [1]. Post holes from dwelling objects and fireplaces were discovered in several places of the cave [1].
