A close view of a carved niche in the limestone wall of the fourth cave below the Mellieħa Cross.
This detail inside the fourth cave below the Mellieħa Cross shows a clearly worked niche cut into the limestone wall. Although no formal scientific record confirms cave dwelling at this exact site, the carved recess, modified rock surface and surrounding chamber suggest past human use within Mellieħa’s historic cave landscape.
