Abstract
The geological map of Crete shows that a large portion of the island is composed of ancient limestone, in itself almost a guarantee of the presence of Pleistocene cave deposits. In confirmation of this, Admiral Spratt in his most valuable work mentions finding two such deposits, from one of which he obtained a few mammalian remains.Keywords
