Saflieni Phase

The Saflieni phase (3000-2500 BC) of Malta's prehistory was named after the Hypogeum of Ħal-Saflieni. The hypogeum and part of the Ta' Ħaġrat temple complex both date from this period.

This phase evolved from the Ġgantija phase (3600–3200 BC), and led to the Tarxien phase (3150-2500 BC).

Famous quotes containing the word phase:

    The problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color-line—the relation of the darker to the lighter races of men in Asia and Africa, in America and the islands of the sea. It was a phase of this problem that caused the Civil War.
    —W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)
