About Stalactites of Prometheus Cave

Prometheus Cave lies near the village of Kumistavi, about twenty kilometres from Kutaisi. It was discovered in 1984 and is named after Prometheus, the hero of the Greek myth who stole fire for people and was chained to a rock in the Caucasus as punishment. A path more than a kilometre long leads visitors through huge halls full of stalactites, stalagmites, stone curtains and underground lakes, lit in changing colours, and part of the way back can be made by boat on an underground river. This photo shows stalactites hanging from the cave ceiling in warm light.

Puzzle tip: start with the brightest stalactites, then the coloured rock around them, and the dark corners last.
