Gasena Caves
Group of six small cavities, three of which are marked on the tablet with the relative symbol and the inscription Gr.te di Gasena; they are dug in the cliff of the same name upstream of the current farm (altitude 284). The environment is significantly degraded by a past intensive farming exploitation
of cattle. The manure covers the testimonies of a presumable "Mànnara". The hopes of finding an appreciable deposit are almost nil. F ° 249 III NE Carini; Yes.
