Abstract
Ice caves are known as natural phenomena since centuries. Nevertheless the increase of knowledge was reduced by their accessibility in remote mountain regions and an inconsistency and of the related nomenclature. As a result the history of ice cave research didn't proceed consistently in one direction of development and numerous theories were evolved concurrently. Apart from that a substantial mainly descriptive literature evolved with descriptions of ice caves worldwide. In the 20th century it was evident that ice caves are not a rare natural phenomenon but a common in high and especially low altitudes in many mountain ranges. Since then they were studied more detailed and scientifically. Till today new ice caves are successively discovered by speleologists in many countries.
