The second chamber of the third cave below the Mellieħa Cross, with partitions suggesting later use as an animal shelter.

This image shows the second chamber of the third cave below the Mellieħa Cross, where low partitions and enclosed sections suggest later use as an animal shelter or storage space. The worked limestone walls, darkened ceiling and modified layout point to human adaptation, although this exact cave should be described cautiously without formal archaeological confirmation.
