    Let’s explore megalithic Tarxien temples in Malta. This neolithic site consists of four interconnected ancient temples, which are more than five thousand years old. The oldest dates back to around 3600 BC, so it’s almost a thousand years older than the most famous ancient structure - the Pyramid of Khufu. Massive stone blocks, spiral carvings, animal reliefs, and the “Fat Lady statue” were made by the people who used only stone tools!
    After exploring this spectacular complex we will travel through the picturesque island of Malta to see the Xemxija rock-cut tombs. Those truly ancient burial structures date back to 3800 BC! Isn’t it amazing? Are you ready to go inside with me?
    Let’s go!
    Explored in September 2023.
    It's a must-see video for all of you, who visit Malta for the first time. To appreciate and cherish the magic of the place before you travel to the wonderful island of Malta watch this. My vlog / full documentary will give you a little taste of ancient wonders: ancient architecture, ancient beliefs, and ancient history.

    Wow Irena! This episode is really a masterpiece! You are taking and improving your unique Documentary Style to a new level!
    I love all the little details and the direction of this episode!
    And about the content this episode is simply outstanding! I love how you show all the details of the work on the rock. Those rock patterns are amazing. Also the all the complex looks incredible! One of the oldest places I ever see on YT!
    And the Neolithc tombs are really incredibles! I love all the prehistoric tombs, because even with smalls details or some little archeological evidence, those tombs can give us a valuable information about the human life form ancient periods.
    Thank you very much Irena for your work! ♥

    Hello Irena! So glad you're back to your original format! I was really missing the walk throughs, it's why I subscribed. Malta... WOW! I hadn't realized the history of it. Going back to Neolithic time. It's truly a testament to the stone masons not having Copper tools. The Artistry and engineering is remarkable. It is frustrating when you go to places that don't allow cameras. I share your disappointment. Can't WAIT to see your upcoming video's. As always, keep up the great work you and your camera person, and for god sake...wear BOOTS! 🤣. 🤘😁🖖🇨🇦❤️

    Awesome video! I did not expect an ancient temple there at Malta. Are you still there? Maybe you can go check out where Popeye with Robin Williams was filmed at. I've always wanted to go there since I saw that movie because they have really beautiful beaches and rocky islands around. Maybe someday I'll go there and I'll be sure to visit the temple as well thanks to this video!

    13:13 the hole contained water (erosion on the lower step) and was likely covered by the broken slab at 13:23. The little square passage has 2 holes on each side probably for a door to prevent pests from entering, just wide enough for a jar to pass (12:54). Just a wild guess though 😉Thank you for sharing these awesomely detailed tours 🙏

    • @ancientsitesgirl
      @ancientsitesgirl  4 месяца назад +3

      various theories... apparently, when the first settlements appeared there, the Black Sea was rising rapidly, forcing people to migrate westwards, Malta was then a forested, fertile land, perhaps connected to Sicily by a network of archipelagos. Perhaps we will learn more over time. Regards

    Para Bolic mirrors were used to melt rock in ancient times but They look like big cement blocks that we know the ancient people used to make when you have so much sand and lime and crushed granite powerded rocks that were easy to transport it is not difficult at all for one person to make those blocks using readily available materials, sand stone is easy to shape

    • @PoorMarvoloSawyer
      @PoorMarvoloSawyer 11 дней назад

      Theories need to be based on available evidence. All evidence we have points to what you've said being incorrect.
      - Mirrors: Though Malta lacks the natural resources to make mirrors, it is known Malta did trade in those times with nearby places. However, not a single mirror fragment or sign of production has ever been found. No stones in the temples show any signs of having been melted. Furthermore, there is no substantial evidence for mirrors or lenses being used to create ancient sites - truly viable lenses were not developed until thousands of years afterwards.
      - Cement: Malta only has sedimentary rock (i.e. no granite). The temple stones are whole and natural stones, not made of any cement/mortar, nor joined by any cement/mortar.
