%X Two dry caves from French Provence (Adaouste and Champignons caves) were until now considered as ˇ°normalˇ± caves, evolved under meteoric water flow conditions. A new approach gives evidence of a hypogenic origin from deep water uprising under artesian conditions. Specific morphologies and sediments associated with this hydrology are discussed.
