There is extenstive elaboration of caves in North Macedonia by regions. Next chapters are about biospeleology (comprehensive presentation of cave diversity in North Macedonia), speleopaleontology (mainly fossils from Pleistocene), speleoarchaeology (first comprehensive presentation of paleolithic findings—Neanderthal communities), cave churches, threats and protection, destroyed karts phenomena. The monograph ends with glossary (Macedonian with English, German, French, Croatian, and Serbian translations), bibliography.
