Skocjan Caves is situated in the Karst Plateau of South-West Slovania near the banks of the River Reka; this area is considered as a burial and ritual place. Cave Salamander is a part of this cave region which is home to many invertebrates and crustaceans.

Caves and Cave Dwellers were anciently seen in Zenobian islands(also called Zanj) between Moscha and Asich; the Bible speaks of Rechabites who were identified with this River Reka; Skocjan Cave is thus identical with Zenobian Caves. The former is a name which the migrants gave to the Caves in their new-found settlements. The Biblical term Sitz im Leben could not satisfactorily be explained by scholars; it simply means, according to Commentators, the ‘Life in Situation’ of Jesus; in reality this was a period in Life of Jesus when he spent some time in a Cave for meditating purposes in the ‘Krousta(Kara Toya) River as same as Kakustha or Khotan River. This also identifies itself with Sajur Valley of the Bible same as Saraju River of the Ramayana.

Various linked with this name are historic in nature: Triesta(meeting points of three rivers) hinterland, Velika Dolina, Mrtvi Jezero(Dead Lake), Tiha Jama(Silent Cave), Mullerjeva Dvorona),  Ledent Dihnik(siphon). They collectively preserve the names of places in and around the Sravasti from which the name of Slavs and Sobhavana have been originated.

Unesco says, ‘ The main channel of the celebrated underground river resurfaces in two picturesque collapsed dolines named Velika and Mala. The breath-taking view of these two collapsed dolines is depicted in the drawings of the pioneering explorer Valvasor that date back as early as 1689, and has never ceased to fascinate visitors, artists and scientists’. This is the exact version of a similar story on the River Saraswati(Valika means ‘sand’ where this river disappears). Both Velika and Mala are identified with two place-names in ancient Kosala or Cos near Sra(-vasti). Velika is again connected with Dvorona and with Dvorana Ponvic. Dvorona here identifies ‘Jharana’ means the ‘Spring’. While Slovakia finds its origin in Sra(-vasti), Slovenia’s origin is linked to Sobha-vana near it.
