The cavern floor was alternatively flooded and exposed until shortly after 10,000 B.C. During relatively brief intervals since then, American Indians crawled Hidden Cave, leaving behind a well-stratified, well-preserved record of their presence." - illustrated - From amnh.org - http://anthro.amnh.org/anthropology/research/hidden.htm
