| Abstract: | Il-kelma ‘muxrabija’ tfisser tieqa ċkejkna tal-injam li normalment insibuha fuq xi bieb ta’ dar antika. Din it-tieqa hi maħduma f’għamla ta’ kaxxa mqabbża ftil il-barra mill-kumplament tal-faċċata, b’bieba persjana fuq il-wiċċ tagħha. L-injam tal-ġnub u tal-qiegħ insibu fihom xquq jew toqob. L-iskop ta’ din it-tieqa mhux biex iddaħħal l-arja jew id-dawl iżda dak ta’sendikajra. Minnha naraw li fadal biss ftit eżempji mxerrdin fi ftit irħula f’Malta u Għawdex. Fiż-Żejtun għad hemm numru zgħir ta’ muxrabijet li lkoll kemm huma ġew imħarsa mill-Awtorita tal-Ippjanar. |
