In fact, Mnajdra and the other temples may be part of a much larger
ancient astronomical project. One that, if proven to be true, would rewrite the accepted timeline
of Malta's prehistory. Dutch researcher
and author, Lenie Reedijk, has explored every one
of Malta's megalithic temples and made a close study
of their alignments. To her great surprise, none of Malta's other temples
line up with any equinoxes or solstices. But they also don't face any particular
geographical feature in their area. In fact, none of them
even face the same direction. No two orientations are the same
