dc.description.abstractThe scope of this paper is to put a case for lithological mapping of the limestone used in the Neolithic architecture of Malta to establish, through a comparative analysis, the provenance of the building fabric utilised in the erection of such monumental buildings. In this study, rock samples from the same lithology were assessed through destructive and non-destructive physico-mechanical, textural, chemical and mineralogical analytical techniques, to determine the principal characteristics of the limestone.en_GB
