    Malta and Gozo - Experiences of a study tour from 14th to 21st September 2019 Text and Photos: Hans-Rudolf Neumann Saturday, 14th September 2019 The morning flight from Berlin via Frankfurt Main to Malta with Lufthansa ran without any incidents. But check-in service in Berlin leaves a lot to be desired; the transition to digital full automation to reduce staff provoked the oppo- site effect. Luggage check-in and boarding on two different ends of the airport caused anno- yance, while during boarding two flights were serviced on the same counter. One two Warsaw and one to Frankfurt Main – the line on luggage security was more than 200 people and it was safe to ask the pilot again if this is the right plane when entering the plane. The on-board meal on the flight to Frankfurt consisted of a 30 g al- mond tartlet of a 65 mm size and a drink, on the connecting flight to Malta we had a honey nut bar and another drink.

  • Anatomies of Spanish Settlers in Malta Between 1580 and 1648: Their Family Stories Simon Mercieca [email protected]
    Anatomies of Spanish Settlers in Malta between 1580 and 1648: Their Family Stories Simon Mercieca [email protected] Abstract: This paper will attempt to reconstruct the different identity kits of Spanish settlers in Malta between 1580 and 1648. The analysis shall use the Status Liberi documentation which is a series of Ecclesiastical Acts recording the assessment of foreigners by an ecclesiastical judge of those outsiders who wished to get married in Malta. This procedure was undertaken to verify whether the candidate was single or not, the former being and remains a sine qua non for marriage. The surviving documents recount the lives of these settlers before taking up permanent residence in Malta and highlight the reason behind their decision to settle down in Malta. The most fascinating aspect of these documents is that these stories are recounted by the protagonists themselves. They give insight to issues of identity and shared memory among the Spanish settlers. In the majority, they were simple folk without any pretensions or extraordinary expectations. Were it not for such a prerequisite their life histories would have been lost forever. Keywords: Malta, Spaniards, Status Liberi, marriage, seafaring, identity The Research Methodology n the following analysis I will attempt the reconstruction of what one might term to have been a ‘Spanish’ identity in Malta at a time Iwhen Europe was passing through widespread political turmoil as a result of the Wars of Religion. My historical-critical interpretation of this past migratory experience will be based on the patchy survival of court Symposia Melitensia Number 11 (2015) SYMPOSIA MELITENSIA NUMBER 11 (2015) records.

  • DISTRIBUTION of VILLAS and SOME of the MAL TESE ECONOMY in the ROMAN PERIOD by ANTIIONY BONANNO
    DISTRIBUTION OF VILLAS AND SOME OF THE MAL TESE ECONOMY IN THE ROMAN PERIOD by ANTIIONY BONANNO CERTAINLY one of the most striking aspects of the Maltese archae­ ology of the Roman period is the comparatively large number of villas, or rural houses, distributed in different areas of the two major islands of the Maltese archipelago. Already twenty-two sites have been recorded, their state of preservation ranging from just a few foundation wall s to full-seal e buil din g compl exe s. By far the largest and most impressive remains of such buildings are those excavated in recent years by the Italian Mission from the University of Rome at San Pawl Milqi.l Another villa, not much smaller in scale, was excavated in 1915 by Ashby at Ta' Kacca­ tura, near Biri:ebbuga, on the other side of the valley opposite the well-known prehistoric site of Gnar Dalam. 2 Yet another is cur­ rently being excavated by the Mus~um Department at Zejtun. 3 The thermal complex of Gnajn Tuffiena, decorated with pleasant and varied geometrical mosaics, must have formed part of a sumptuous villa. 4 Traces of similar baths have been recorded at Marsaxlokk,5 and another villa with richly patterned mosaics was brought to light at Ramla Bay in Gozo. 6 Other sites which have produced re­ mains of villas are: Tas-Sittin (near Fawwara), Ras ir-Raheb (near Bahrija), Fiddien (near ,Mtahleb), Wardija, Bidnija, Hal Far and St. Thomas Bay.7, Until its name is corrected it may not be super­ fluous to repeat that the so-called 'Roman Villa' of Rabat is not a villa at all, but a Roman town house.

    MHA Newsletter No. 6/2015 www.mha.org.au July 2015 Merħba! A warm welcome is extended to all our June 2014 members and friends. THE MALTESE HISTORICAL Joe Borg’s lecture about the great Siege on 16 June June 2014 was well attended, and he has sent us a summary of his ASSOCIATION (AUSTRALIA) talk. A link to the PowerPoint and lecture recording are provided in case you missed it. After the lecture, two invites you to attend the new members joined the MHA, Marie Pirotta and John Melbourne launch of the Bonnice. I am sure you will make them feel welcome, with true Maltese hospitality. John contributed the commemorative book: excellent pictorial essay on Fort St Elmo to the last newsletter. Malta and the ANZACS - You may recall that at our last AGM the MHA agreed to Nurse of the Mediterranean help sponsor the publication of Frank Scicluna’s book, Malta and the ANZACS - Nurse of the Mediterranean. It has finally been released. As an individual sponsor, I have already received a copy, which I have reviewed on page 6 of this newsletter. In a word, it is superb! The Maltese Consul General, Mr. Victor Grech, will officially launch the book in Melbourne at our next meeting on 21 July. The author, Frank Scicluna OAM, will be in attendance, speaking about his book and will be bringing copies for sale. It is a public event, so tell everyone you can think of. Malta’s role in World War I makes me particularly proud of my Maltese heritage. Joe Borg’s third lecture on the Great Siege was originally scheduled for this month but will be postponed to September.

  • The Maltese Islands and the Sea in Antiquity
    THE MALTESE ISLANDS AND THE SEA IN ANTIQUITY The Maltese Islands and the Sea in Antiquity TIMMY GAMBIN The events of history often lead to the islands… F. Braudel THE STRETCHES OF SEA EXTANT BETWEEN ISLANDS AND mainland may be observed as having primary-dual functionalities: that of ‘isolating’ islands and that of providing connectivity with land masses that lay beyond the islands’ shores. On smaller islands especially, access to the sea provided a gateway from which people, goods and ideas could flow. This chapter explores how, via their surrounding seas, events of history often led to the islands of Malta and Gozo. The timeframe covered consists of over one thousand years (circa 700 BC to circa 400 AD); a fluid period that saw the island move in and out of the political, military and economic orbits of various powers that dominated the Mediterranean during these centuries. Another notion of duality can be observed in the interaction that plays out between those coming from the outside and those inhabiting the islands. It would be mistaken to analyze Maltese history solely in the context of great powers that touched upon and ‘colonized’ the islands. This historical narrative will also cover important aspects such as how the islands were perceived from those approaching from out at sea: were the islands a hazard, a haven or possibly both at one and the same time? It is also essential to look at how the sea was perceived by the islanders: did the sea bring welcome commercial activity to the islands shores; did it carry 1 THE MALTESE ISLANDS AND THE SEA pirate vessels and enemy ships? As important as these questions are, this narrative would be incomplete without reference to how the sea helped shape and mould the way in which the people living on Malta and Gozo chose (or were forced) to live.

    MALTA PAINTED BY VITTORIO BORON DESCRIBED BY FREDERICK W. RYAN 488742 30. 3- LONDON ADAM & CHARLES BLACK 1910 TO COUNT GIROLAMO TAGLIAFERRO THIS BOOK IS AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED BY THE WRITER PREFACE THE following text is intended to give no more than a slight sketch, aided by Signer Boron's effective pencil, of the manifold interests to be found in Malta. While the archaeology of the island and its con- nection with the Order of St. John of Jerusalem have from time to time attracted attention, English writers seem regrettably to have neglected other topics presented by this unique Imperial posses- sion, such as the folk-lore and literature of the the of the Maltese language ; growth early Christian of the nature of the ' Church Malta ; Consiglio Popolare' that gleam of constitutional govern- ment in the Dark Ages quite as interesting as the or the social Wittenagemote ; and economic condition of the Maltese people under the Knights and in the early days of British rule all of which have engaged the attention of Italian and Maltese historians. vi PREFACE Circumstances have not allowed more than a passing allusion in the following pages to such subjects : they are here mentioned to indicate the fruitful field of research embraced by the Malta Historical and Scientific Society, formed last year in Valletta, which proposes, under the guidance of its President, Professor Napoleon Tagliaferro, to * study the history and archaeology of the Maltese ' Islands and other scientific subjects of local interest an association well worthy of the support of British residents in Malta. The vast contents of the Record Office in Valletta and oral tradition the latter nowhere stronger than in these islands may on examination con- tribute many valuable additions to literature and history.
