The chronology of various samples of carbonic materials (stalagmite sediments) of the cave from the Laboratory of Nuclear Physics "Dimokritos" showed that ancients than these was created before 230 thousand years. Another sample was dated in the 107 thousand years. These ages concern only the specific shaping from where became the sampling and not the whole cave, because there must be ancient cave contents buried under the falls.
The date of the begging of the creation of a cave is difficult and usually the combinations of the structures age that were created before and after this. Theoretically in Greece because of the intense realignments and the continuous karstic caves are not bigger than 25 million years, while its most likely the most caves to begin to take shape 5-1 million years before.
