Potok Cave[1][2] (Slovene: Potočka zijalka or Potočka zijavka[3]) is a cave in northern Slovenia, declared a high-elevation archaeological and paleontological site, occupied approximately 35,000 years[4] BP (before present) by anatomically modern humans of the Aurignacian culture during the Upper Paleolithic.

[8] The cave is located in the eastern Karawanks in northern Slovenia, on the southern slope of Mount Olševa above Solčava, at an elevation of 1,675 m (5,495 ft) in the Triassic limestone.

[8] After amateur excavations by Josef Gross, a medical student from Austria, the area was bought by the Museum Society of Celje.

[9] The finds from eight layers excavated from the cave included the bones of more than 40 animal species, including cave bears, wolves, alpine marmots, hares, red foxes, weasels, lynx, red deer, and chamois, and muskox teeth, as well as 123 arrowheads, one of the world's oldest sewing needles, and a bone flute made from a bear mandible.

[8][11][12][13] In a village near the cave, a permanent exhibit is open for tourists at the Firšt Inn and Museum in the Logar Valley.
