SUMMARY
The first scientifical expedition in order to explore and map man-made caves in Iceland
took place during the summer of 1915. It was led by the famous Icelandic poet and business-
man Einar Benediktsson. Recently some photos from this expedition were found. Some of
them are from caves that now have disappeared. This article describes the photos, but old
photos from man-made caves are very rare.
