Selime - Caves In The Cliff
At the downstream end of the Ilhara Valley lies the town of Selime. You can see caves carved into the cliff wall.
Some caves were made to house animals or to form part of a dwelling. Smaller caves were carved out to house pigeons which were widely raised as a source of guano to be used for fertilizer since the area is otherwise poor in soil nutrients needed for agriculture.
