Skorba Temples, situated on the island of Malta, stand as remarkable remnants of an ancient civilization that flourished thousands of years ago. These megalithic structures date back to the Neolithic period, making them some of the oldest freestanding stone temples in the world. The temples consist of two main structures, referred to as Skorba South and Skorba North, which are believed to have served as religious and communal gathering places for the prehistoric inhabitants. The temples showcase impressive craftsmanship, with massive stone blocks meticulously arranged to form intricate walls and doorways. Archaeological excavations have uncovered various artifacts, including statues, pottery, and tools, shedding light on the daily lives and spiritual beliefs of the people who once inhabited this site. Skorba Temples provide a captivating glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Malta and continue to intrigue historians, archaeologists, and visitors alike with their awe-inspiring antiquity.
