Prehistoric
Ħaġar Qim Temples
— predate the pyramids of Egypt.
Dating to between 3,600 and 3,200 B.C., the temples are among the oldest on Earth.
A guide at the entrance to the Temples describes what we are to see. Notice the huge size of the stones.
Protective "tent" was recently built over the ancient structure to slow deterioration due to rain, sun, etc.
Another view - notice the large, horizontal stones used to form the top of the door way.
Inside the Temple.
