Geological cycles
Limestone cracks and cavities widened by acid carbonated waters create caves, galleries and halls.

On the other hand, the thin sand and sludge layer formed by the collapse of the shells of marine animals hardens during geological periods and thus limestone layers are formed.
After that, after the ascension starts with orogenic movements, the seabed is subjected to the rise in the form of mountains. On the other hand, as Karst Corrosion (Chemical erosion = corrosion) continues, caves and underground systems start to grow gradually.

However, caves, like living things, have a birth, growth and pause (fossil) phases. After an interruption in the fossil phase of an underground system, the destruction begins.
