| Abstract: | Eżattament wara t-tempji neolitiċi ta' l-Imnajdra jinstab il-Wied pittoresk tal-Magħlaq. F'dan il-post jinstab blat iebes ferm magħruf bħala tal-qawwi. Fl-1858 kienet infetħet l-ewwel barriera f'dan il-post sabiex bil-blat li jinqata' jinbnew il-baċiri ġodda fil-Port il-Kbir. Dan wassal sabiex jinstab għar mimli għadam fossilizzat. L-għadam kien ta' l-ipopotamu u ta' annimali oħra. Dan l-għar interessanti kien ġie studjat minn Leonard Horner (1785-1864), ġeoloġista Skoċċiż u dan kien ippreżenta rapport fil-Geological Society fl-1861. |
