Ġgantija
Ġgantija is a Neolithic, megalithic temple complex on the Mediterranean island of Gozo. The Ġgantija temples are the earliest of a series of megalithic temples in Malta. The Ġgantija temples are older than the pyramids of Egypt. Their makers erected the two Ġgantija temples during the Neolithic Age (c. 3600-2500 BC), which makes these temples more than 5500 years old and the world's second oldest manmade religious structures, after Göbekli Tepe.

The Megalithic Temples of Malta are the oldest free-standing structures on Earth. Eleven prehistoric monuments, of which seven are UNESCO World Heritage Sites, were built during three distinct time periods between 5000BC and 700BC approximately. Archaeologists believe that these megalithic complexes are the result of local innovations in a process of cultural evolution.
Brochtorff Circle

Għar ix-Xih
Ghar ix-Xih is a former cave found near Mgarr ix-Xini, Gozo, Malta. It was re-discovered in 2009. The cave is situated at the mouth of the valley.

The cave floor contained artifacts dating from Bronze Age to late Roman times. At some point the roof was removed.
