The Mysterious Cave Of Ashes (Isarun) In Ondo State.





Ever Heard Of The Mysterious Cave Of Ashes (isarun) In Ondo State?

The mysterious cave of ashes called "Iho Eleeru" in Yoruba is located at Isarun, near Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria. The site dates back as early as 9200BC and is popular as the cradle of West Africa’s oldest pre-historic man.




Thanks to archaeological excavation of the skeleton of the oldest pre-historic man here. Located in a thick forest, more or less left in its natural form, rocks of different sizes and peculiarities surround this cave, one of which has engravings that locals believe to be Ifa oracle’s divination. 



This site is essentially an untapped tourist attraction.
