A Dungeon.

Dungeons were introduced in the "Seecret Friday Update 2" to Infdev (and happened to be the last update before Alpha mode was released). They are small rooms made of Cobblestone and Mossy Cobblestone. This is the only place that Mossy Cobblestone can be found in a natural map, so it might be wise to loot it. Caverns are sometimes connected to Dungeons, which leave an opening into the dungeon.

Dungeons contain a Mob Spawner and one or two Chests, although some players have reported [1] finding Dungeons without any Chests. The Mob Spawner acts as a guard against the loot, spawning endless monsters until the player can steal the loot quickly or break the Spawner. The chest contains treasure- Saddles, Iron ingots, Buckets, Bread and String are a few things often found. It is possible to find a Dungeon almost anywhere in the ground, but rarely does a Dungeon spawn high in the stone layer of a map. However, a player has reported finding a Dungeon right under 3 blocks of their spawn location. Another user has taken pictures of a Dungeon set into a hillside.

Dungeons can quickly be located using an up-to-date infinite map viewer. To locate them, set the viewer to show only mossy cobblestone (data value 48) or locate cobblestone (data value 4) that you did not place. Play the save file and head out to one such place and dig down until the Dungeon is found. The viewer must be up-to-date, or it may crash upon trying to load blocks that it doesn't recognize.
