Malta Workers stumbled across a Muslim cemetery was made known in 1675. Archaeologists are combing the findings suspect this cemetery is final resting place of Muslim Turkey.
The next two archaeologists working around the clock to document the findings. Harapanya, will unfold over a lot of information from the cemetery.
"We're trying to clean up the debris around the bones. Then record everything that we find," said an archaeologist, Marvin Demicoli, as quoted timesofmaltasd, Saturday (10/2).
His colleague, Michelle Padovani said that the remains of the cemetery in good condition. However, he could not predict how long it will last. "We took Malta transportation agencies to ensure the site can be saved," said Padovani.
Two archaeologists were then dug ditches around the site. They then asked for help from the safety and health authorities to the possibility of collapse.
Of the existing findings, historian, Godfrey Wettinger conclude this cemetery is part of a burial site that was given to Muslims by the Grand Master Niccolo Cotoner in 1675. However, the cemetery was destroyed to build the road for Benten Floriana.
