| The Prehistoric Archaeology of the Temples of Malta Europe's Oldest Buildings are found in Malta Maltese Cart Ruts Malta provides a further achaeological conundrum - the Maltese Cart Ruts. Impossible to date, the name implies that they are parallel to each other, as though made by wheels on an axle. This is not so, as the ruts wander in and out. The best example is the Buskett group which lies next to the largest and most important of Malta’s ancient quarries. Therefore they may have been used for the transportation of construction blocks - many of these blocks in the temples have stone balls buried under them, and perhaps these ruts were cut to channel the stone balls while they were used as rollers to transport the stone blocks.
