The Utroba Cave in Bulgaria, also known as "The Goddess's Vagina" is an intriguing site dating back to the 9th or 10th century BC. Regarded as a Thracian sanctuary, this cave is distinguished by its unique shape, reminiscent of a goddess's vagina, a feature unmatched by other similar caves in Bulgaria. Deep within the cave, at 22 meters, lies an altar, which is thought to symbolize the cervix or uterus of the goddess.
A fascinating aspect of this cave is the play of light that occurs at noon. Light streams through a ceiling opening, casting a phallus-like image on the cave floor. During February or March, when the sun aligns at a specific angle, this projection extends towards the altar, symbolizing the fertilization of the goddess's uterus.
This natural phenomenon is often linked to the heralding of spring sowing.
