The cave dwellers

Article Abstract:

Thirty-eight members of a Jewish family lived in a cave for almost a year to hide themselves from the Nazis during the Second World War. Modern cavers, who need special clothing, advanced lightening technology and intensive navigation instruction to survive underground for a few days discovered that these men, women and children showed great courage by living for such a long time in such hostile conditions.
