Move page, historical age
in keeping with other articles, i'd like to move this to Ġgantija Srl 02:10, 20 November 2005 (UTC) done. But.. Bronze or Copper age????? Srl 08:19, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
- Good point, changed to reflect the proper age. Amazing to think they built all that with just stone and wood tools. - lars 02:48, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
Otto Bayer
How could Otto Bayer excavate Ggantija Temple in 1837 if he lived between 1902–1982? Norum 03:15, 29 April 2006
It must be a different one. Maltesedog 11:18, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
Oldest Free Standing Structures
There are court tombs, passage tombs, and various structures in France, Turkey, Spain and Ireland which predate this. Example: Tomb 7, Carrowmore, dated by Burenhult in the 1970's to approximately 6200 years old. What about Cathal Hoyuk in Turkey? Certainly there are buildings there, probably early Neolithic.

--- I agree, religious structures in Turkey such as Göbekli_Tepe are a much older than the Ġgantija structures. I will change the text of the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.97.69.34 (talk) 20:26, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Cite gone?
The text has references to a citation, but it isn't there, did someone remove it? HenrikOlsen (talk) 17:14, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
pronunciation
Is this the English pronunciation? Regardless, where's the stress? kwami (talk) 10:17, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
Do there exist any putative reconstructions, impressions, etc.?
Are there WMedia-compatible images of best-guess reconstructions, hopefully free of too much antichronistic neo-pagan influence, for this site? 71.82.157.201 (talk) 07:18, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
Map is ambiguous
The map of the structure, https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f2/English_map_of_Ggantija_temples.tif/lossy-page1-1024px-English_map_of_Ggantija_temples.tif.jpg has the text "C expansion of the northern temple" but it shown as the southernmost part of the temple, connected with the southern, older part of the structure? 109.59.16.247 (talk) 16:23, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
