History and specifics
In 2267, the criminal Anzar and his gang were based in the caves of Lurota, from which he contacted the USS Enterprise and demanded 100 million in credits for the return of the biomagnetic recordings of Styra, which his partner Allura had stolen. James T. Kirk and Spock beamed down to the caves to negotiate with Anzar, then later used a Trojan horse ploy to capture him and his men. (TOS comic: "The Hijacked Planet")
