Cave No. 11 is an artificial cave consisting of two interconnected chambers. The structure of the cave has a rectangular shape. Both outside and inside the cave there is a water well, and above it a food storage was built. Later, an iron door was installed at the entrance. This cave is larger compared to the others. From the interior, it is evident that the inhabitants created comfort for themselves. A prayer corner and a carved stone table for sitting were arranged. Inside the cave, ancient people used stone tools to perform various tasks, carving beds and niches into the walls. The walls of the cave were shaped to form small cells.<\/p>\n<p>Frescoes dating to the late 19th \u2013 early 20th centuries were painted both on the ceilings and the walls of Cave No. 11. These frescoes, in addition to serving as important sources for researchers, demonstrate that during this period the cave had ceased to function merely as a dwelling space and had instead acquired the role of a religious and cultic sanctuary. The compositional style and principles of placement of the frescoes confirm that traditions of iconoplastics were maintained within the cave setting, incorporating ornamental and religious-symbolic depictions. The Georgians referred to this cave as \u201cBertuban\u201d and used it as a cave-temple. The term \u201cBertuban\u201d itself meant \u201cLand of Temples.\u201d The iconoplastic elements employed here provide grounds to assume the presence of representations associated with Jesus Christ, saints, and ecclesiastical symbols. This, in turn, indicates that the Ke\u015fik\u00e7ida\u011f territory was not only an ethno-cultural space, but also one of significant importance for the development and manifestation of Christian religious traditions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"gallerify-container\"><div class=\"gallerify\" data-allowfullscreen=\"true\" data-nav=\"thumbs\" data-keyboard=\"true\"  data-autoplay=\"false\" data-trackpad=\"false\" data-ratio=\"800\/500\" data-width=\"96%\"><img src=\"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-08-19-at-12.58.05-1.jpeg\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" alt=\"\" data-skip-lazy=\"\" \/>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/46-1.jpg\" width=\"1818\" height=\"1184\" alt=\"\" data-skip-lazy=\"\" \/>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/43-1.jpg\" width=\"1053\" height=\"676\" alt=\"\" data-skip-lazy=\"\" \/>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-08-19-at-12.58.06.jpeg\" width=\"579\" height=\"884\" alt=\"\" data-skip-lazy=\"\" \/>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/01.05.2010.-Akstafa.-Kesikci-dag-qorugu.-030.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" alt=\"\" data-skip-lazy=\"\" \/>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cave No. 11<\/p>\n<p>Period: Early Middle Ages<br \/>\nInventory:<br \/>\nLocation: Qatardagh Ridge \u201cKeshikchidagh\u201d State Historical and Cultural Reserve<br \/>\nWidth: 8.70 m<br \/>\nLength: 10.80 m<br \/>\nHeight: 2.27m<br \/>\nArea: 93,96. m\u00b2                                   <\/p>\n<p>Traces of the earliest s&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14225,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[71],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14221"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14221"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14221\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14269,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14221\/revisions\/14269"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14225"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14221"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14221"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/az\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14221"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
