The Lost MEGALITHIC Sites Of MALTA

Malta's megalithic temples are some of the most impressive buildings in the Neolithic world. Although aspects of them are reminiscent of megalithic structures in other parts of Europe, their overall form and style was unique to Malta, as was the art created by the temple people. The Maltese islands cover just a few hundred square metres, and yet, evidence points to the temple people having built upwards of fifty megalithic structures. Why would the Neolithic farming communities on the island need so many ritual centres? In this video I explore the major, minor and lost megalithic sites of Malta to build a comprehensive picture of the entire built landscape during the Neolithic. I also discuss why the temple people may have needed so many megalithic buildings in such a small area, why their culture appears to have come from nowhere and why their art and architecture has no parallels outside of the islands. #history #malta #megaliths ✨ JOIN MY CHANNEL    / @megalithhunter   ✨ SUPPORT VIA PATREON   / megalithhunter   ✨ FOLLOW ME ON SOCIALS Instagram & Facebook: @MegalithHunter Twitter: @Megalith_Hunter ✨ REFERENCES Ashby, T., R.N.
