(Temple).
Description
-
Not much left to see of this temple
complex. The Hotel 'Dolmen', surrounds the site making it necessary to pass
through the hotel to view it. Do not let this put you off however, as the
staff are obliging.

Bugibba:
There's not much left to see, but it is still there and with
free access.
The Great altar stone
(now in Valetta museum) has a double spiral on its face, extremely
reminiscent of the Irish spirals and zig-zags. It is identical 'in part' to
the stone at the rear of the
Newgrange mound.
The avenue
(above), was constructed
over the temple ruins, at a time sometime
between the 'temple' period and the 'hotel' period.
