Sferracavallo, Italy
Grotta dell'Addaura
The Addaura cave is a complex of three natural grottoes located on the northeast side of Mount Pellegrino in Palermo, Sicily, Southern Italy. The importance of the complex is due to the presence of cave-wall engravings dated to the late Epigravettian and the Mesolithic. On the side of Mount Pellegrino, overlooking Palermo, to the southeast of Mondello beach at 70 metres above sea level, there are some open grottoes and cavities where bones and tools used for hunting have been found, attesting the presence of humans who lived in them beginning in the Paleolithic and into the Mesolithic.
