| Abstract: | The town of Paola lies on the south-western side of the Grand Harbour. The area received considerable attention under the Order especially when Grand Master Antoine de Paule founded a new village so as to avoid over-population in Valletta and the Three Cities: Vittoriosa, Senglea, and Cospicua. In recent years building and industrial developments have almost made Paola and neighbouring Marsa fuse into one whole region and have destroyed a great number of archaeological sites, particularly since the 1940s. This article discusses a great number of archaeological sites, such as cisterns, tombs and other architectural features found in the Paola area. |
