| Resumo: | [eng] The present paper describes two unpublished pot-holes recently explored at the ridge known as s’Esquena dets Ases, in the mountains of the public property of Galatzó (Calvià, Mallorca); the topographical surveys of both cavities are published, while some basic data on the geology and geomorphology of the area are also furnished. The dimensions of these shafts are rather modest, with the largest attaining a maximum depth of -46 m, while the smaller one is only -16 m deep. The main interest of these cavities lies in the fact that they can be related to one of the chasms mentioned in the fable entitled “Es pastor de Galatzó”, included in the compilation of Mallorcan folk tales published in 1895 by Archduke Ludwig Salvator Habsburg-Lothringen; the aforementioned fable refers to the misdeeds of Comte Mal, a historical-legendary aristocrat from these territories. |
