Tarxien Temples
An interesting companion to the nearby Ħal Saflieni Hypogeum, the four interconnecting Tarxien Temples have curious carvings, oracular chambers, and altars, all dating from about 2800 BC. Recovered stone figures of the broad-hipped fertility goddess, now lying in Valletta's National Archeology Museum, indicate it was dedicated to the Earth Mother. An audio guide accessed via a downloadable app (iOS/Android) narrates the history of the site and shows images of artifacts now covered for their protection.
