Caves are fairly common occurrences, and on a large scale may appear to riddle the underground areas of a [[world]].
==Description==
Caves are created as part of a [[Getting Started|new]] [[world]]. They're laid out in curves of varying degree and direction. They can be large or small and can connect (or nearly) with other caves forming a cave system. They sometimes open to the surface giving easy access, particularly in [[mountain]]s, but may also be sealed with layers of [[dirt]] or [[sand]]. [[Mining]] is required to reach most caves.
 
Some caves will open into [[ocean]]s or other bodies of [[water]]. If they aren't created already filled with water, the approach of a Blockhead may trigger a delayed flooding.
 
A cave can be as narrow as a string of single-block hollows separated by several blocks of stone or large enough to be difficult to illuminate with a single source of [[light]]. They can be nearly straight or highly uneven.
 
All caves have a "back wall" of stone, also known as bedrock.
