Abstract: Malta is striking by its diminutive size and its inversely proportional cultural achievement in prehistory. Two distinct phases in Maltese prehistory were extraordinarily articulate in figurative representation: the last phase of the Temple (or Late Neolithic) Period, the Tarxien phase, and the first phase of the Bronze Age, the Tarxien Cemetery phase. It is the first of these two artistic expressions that forms the object of this short paper.
