Ħaġar Qim, a megalithic temple complex located in southern Malta, unveils intriguing clues about ancient civilization’s knowledge of celestial navigation. Built around 5000 years ago, these temples exhibit a remarkable alignment with specific stars, hinting at their potential role as centers for astronomical studies.

The Maltese archipelago boasts seven temples constructed between 3800 and 2300 BC, featuring massive cut stones weighing several tonnes. These structures stand as some of the earliest megalithic constructions in history, showcasing the advanced architectural and astronomical expertise of their builders.

Renowned archaeologist Huw Groucutt acknowledges the consensus among researchers regarding the ritualistic nature of these temples. However, recent findings suggest a deeper connection to celestial observations, implying a sophisticated understanding of astronomical principles among ancient Maltese inhabitants.
