Discovery

I find it strange that the article does not mention the date (at least year) when the cave was discovered. I'll see if I can find this information, but if someone knows, please fix this. -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 02:16, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The date of the cave discovery is april 2006.
The right transcription is Ayyalon and not Ayalon.
Here is sum scientific articles about the cave and it's habitat.

In April 2006, a large cavern was discovered in Israel, as an accidental opening in a deep limestone quarry near Ramla in the inland plain, 21 kilometers from the Mediterranean coast. up to its revelation, the cavern was completely sealed and isolated from the outer world. The cavern is built of two main approximately horizontal levels, connected by vertical carstic chimneys. In the lower level of the cave groundwater of the Joudeah group aquifer was exposed, creating underground lake. In this lake and its surroundings exists a very rich and vital echologic system (bonanza), including six new species of Arthropods, four of them aquatic and two terrestrials. In the absence of daylight or organic matter from the outside, the system is based on primary chymoototrophic production. Currently, the cave is extremely affected and endangered due to the anthropogenic activity in its vicinity.

Change the name!

Who knows how to correct the article's name? The correct spelling is with double-Y: Ayyalon. It helps search for scientific papers. I have added a paragraph about the name(s), but don't know how to change the title. Unsigned contributor here above made the same comment (among many more, which should also be considered).Arminden (talk) 22:33, 5 April 2015 (UTC)Arminden[reply]
