Cave where Aussie soldiers took cover


This cave is just under a position on a hill that our Aussie infantry used to shell Be-er Sheva to give the light horse cover. We found some shells and other things in the dirt. This cave was used to shelter from the return shelling from the Turks who were dug in in Be-er Sheva.
It is man made and started life as a place for Shepard's to hold their flocks at night. There is a ledge that is outside the picture up about 8 feet that the Shepard's would sleep on.
