Is the Maltese cellar a temple or a tomb
In the thriving town of Peola on the island of Malta, the family is not good-looking
Beneath the amazing little food store is a Mediterranean one buried
Amazing ruins - the Maltese Cellars. Malta
The cellar has attracted numerous viewers since its discovery, however
Do you know how the cellar was first discovered?
Maltese cellars are where construction workers dig rock to build water storage
Libraries are occasionally found, and at first workers are using Maltese cellars
There was rubble and mud, and there was also garbage. But there is
A worker thought the cave was unusual, and it didn't seem to be
Naturally formed, it is more like a hand-processed stone chamber. thereupon
The worker reported the discovery to a local archaeologist.
The archaeologists' investigation not only confirmed the worker's findings
It's significant, and it's found even more unpleasant
Solution of the phenomenon.
There are many stone chambers in the Maltese cellars, like an underground mystery
The palace, the deepest point is 10 meters from the ground, and the stone chambers are connected one by one, and there are three floors above and below. Tourists can't help but visit the cellar
The unique construction is amazing. Maltese cellars
The excavation project is very large, its architectural features,
Includes stone columns and roofs, with many of the island of Malta
The tombs and temples are the same. But Malta
Whether the cellar is a temple or a tomb, the question is now
Before I figured it out, I was confused by many archaeologies
A conundrum of home.
The temples of the island of Malta are built on the ground
and this cellar was hewn out of the limestone
The structure is very different from the usual temples and is completely local
The more archaeologists dig down within the cellar, the more they discover that this is not a temple, especially when found
When there were 70 skeletons in the cellar, imagine which temple had so many bones in it? cellar
Since it is not a temple, what is its function? What age was it built?
The age of the cellar is easier to answer. Because the temple on the island of Malta is similar to this cellar building style
Uta was built around 2400 BC when the Island's Stone Age inhabitants made their horns or antlers
Chisels or wedges, hammered into the rocks with stone hammers for excavation, have been built into many magnificent temples. And at the time
The construction tools used by the inhabitants were also excavated during archaeological excavations. Inside the Maltese cellar, there is a stone chamber called the "Oracle Room", and in the stone chamber there is a wall cut off
Behind the block is a grotto that resembles an alcove and houses only one person. A person sits in and talks as usual, and the voice can be
It spread throughout the stone chamber without any distortion. Women can't produce the same because they speak in a higher voice
Effect. The stone chamber was just near the top, and a ridge was carved along the surrounding walls, the woman's voice
It can spread around along this ridge wall.
Because of the discovery of this stone chamber, archaeologists speculate that the cellar may have been built for a special purpose in terms of religion
And this stone chamber may have been the priest's place of preaching. And the priests probably sacrificed goddesses, because of archaeology
In the cellar, the family found two sleeping statues of women, both lying on their sides. There are also a few special fat statues,
It should be a side portrait modeled on pregnant women. This evidence suggests that the cellar may have been a place of worship for mother earth. correct
And no matter what god is worshipped, the eerie environment of this cellar will surely make those who come to worship god and ask for advice in awe
Yes, every time I walk in, I am sincerely afraid. This huge building is buried deep underground, and inside it is dark and invisible
In such a large stone chamber, the mysterious atmosphere is everywhere, filling every corner of the stone chamber.
Looking at it this way, the cellar may be a temple. But it is in this cellar that it has a width
How should this be explained in a small room that is less than 20 meters away, and there are 70 skeletons in the small room? Obviously, this
Phenomena are no longer the use of temples. These 70 or so skeletons are not a complete skeleton, because then
It is impossible for a small place to hold so many skeletons. The skeleton is scattered indoors, indicating that it is a kind of migration
The burial method is concentrated indoors. This burial method was common among primitive peoples. The so-called relocation is to bury the body for several years, the body decays into a skeleton, and then picks it up
The bones were reburied. In this way, the cellar should be
Is it time for a good man and a faithful woman to rest forever? so
Speaking of which, this cellar is both a temple for worship and a temple
Is it a tomb for the dead to rest? Is it the island of Malta
The early religious beliefs of the inhabitants included the worship of death
Who?
No one knows what the inhabitants of the island of Malta are from
When the time came, there was no one who began to lay out the bones like this
Know why you want to put bone colonization so much. likewise
No one knows why this temple became a tomb
A tomb, or it's a tomb in itself, or this
The building already had temples and tombs in the early days
The dual function of the tomb. Many temples stand on the ground
It was built in imitation of an early stone tomb, maybe this one
The cellar is the inverted way of construction, an underground tomb built to imitate the temple on the ground. But
Such questions, such questions, have no answers, and the lack of ancient data has made these questions deeply studied
It is impossible to do so. What is the purpose of this unparalleled underground structure on the island of Malta? Why such as
This build? Probably it will only be a mystery forever.
