In the Ldzaava cave near the coast of the Pitsunda Bay of the Black Sea, in the carbonate speleothems in the roof of the Central Hall, hollow «boxes» were found, the body of which is composed of perfect flat rhombohedral crystals of calcite close to each other. The mechanism of education is discussed.
