| Abstract: | Fil-gzejjer Maltin niltaqghu ma' numru ta' postijiet arkeologici li sfortunatament ma tantx huma maghrufa. Dan minhabba l-fatt li jkunu meqjusa bhala xi haga sekondarja. Izda mhux dejjem ikun il-kaz. Wiehed mill-postijiet li nsibu kemmxejn minsi u abbandunat hu l-Katakombi tas-Salini. Dan il-kumpless ta' oqbra ta' l-ewwel insara f'Malta hu interessanti ghal diversi affarijiet. L-Katakombi tas-Salina jinsab vicin il-Kappella tal-Lunzjata li hemm fuq in-naha l-ohra tat-triq mis-salini li taw l-isem lill-bajja. Parti importanti minn dan il-katakombi hu l-fatt li hemm diversi rkejjen li huma dekorati sew. Id-dekorazzjonijiet jiehdu forom differenti hafna. Hemm dawk li qeghdin juru kolonni kemmxejn dekorati, filwaqt li hemm irkejjen ohra fejn nistghu naraw tiżjin iehor kif ukoll annimali. Dan kollu jaghmel il-katakombi bhala fost l-aktar dekorati li nsibu fil-gzejjer Maltin. |
