    Not far away, and hard to find, lies the cave "Ghar il_Kbir", the "Great Cave". It is estimated that the first humans lived there around 2000 BC. The cave can be entered. But beware: the terrain is not secured (as of March 2019).

    Cart Ruts at Misrah Ghar il-Kbir
    Misrah Ghar il-Kbir (informally known as Clapham Junction) is a prehistoric site in Siġġiewi, Malta, near the Dingli Cliffs. It is best known for its "cart ruts" - a complex network of tracks gouged in the rock. The age and purpose of the tracks are still a mystery of Maltese history. In general, most archeologists presume that the site developed about 2000 BC after new settlers came over from Sicily to start the Bronze Age in Malta. ( Wikipedia)
