| Abstract: | People used to go to bed almost at sunset and rise just before dawn, which mean that practically there was no need for lighting. At some time during the use of the prehistoric oil lamps, candles were developed, and to the present day have continued to be widely used. On the introduction of gas in Malta in 1854, home lighting for many, used gas, till electricity came to stay round about 1882. |
