  • Deciding What to Exhibit in Museums: Does It Really Matter?
    Deciding what to exhibit in museums: Does it really matter? Veronica Barbara Of all the abundant papers focusing on museum environments, few dismantle the decision­ making process which characterizes the planning of displays and site presentations, going beyond space restrictions and physical needs of ancient artefacts. Such an approach is essential to understand why these decisions matter. A natural question which is seldom asked is, why display to the public in the first place? The present paper will start with this question, discussing briefly the two main theoretical stances in current western discourse on the subject. Two local case-studies will follow, supplemented by examples ofprojects which revolve around archaeology and communities. In the conclusion, theory and case-studies will be brought together in order to explain the link between archaeologists and non-archaeologists vis-a-vis archaeological heritage presentation. Models of museum and site presentation 'Neanderthal Man in Malta?' Why do people feel the need to display archaeological The first case-study has as its focus the site of Ghar material? The two main museum models in western Dalam (Birzebbuga). Albeit not as 'touristically' discourse are the Deficit Model and the Multiple popular as other sites, it is extremely significant Perspective Model (Merriman 2004, 5). The Deficit for speleological, paleontological, ecological and Model considers "the public" as an uneducated mass archaeological reasons (Zammit Maempel 1989, in need of professionals to give them "the science" Fabri 2007). The pillar of deposits left in place by the behind artefacts. The main aim of exhibiting within archaeologists makes it the perfect site to understand this model is to make people understand archaeology stratigraphic processes.

  • Roman Mosaic Malta and Gozo Experienced a Period of Relative Peace and Prosperity Under Roman Rule (218 BC – AD 535)
    Roman Mosaic Malta and Gozo experienced a period of relative peace and prosperity under Roman rule (218 BC – AD 535). The main towns of the islands, ‘Melite’ on the mainland and ‘Gaulos’ on the sister island, evolved into flourishing urban centres adorned with fine houses like the Domvs Romana at Rabat (Malta). This town house must have been the residence of a well-established and rich family. Its floors and walls were decorated with fine mosaics, which rank among the finest of the period throughout the west Mediterranean. Of particular note is the courtyard floor, featuring a central panel depicting two pigeons on the rim of a bowl, surrounded by striking geometric patterns. Mosaics are made of roughly squared tiles known as tesserae. Making your own mosaic is fun and can turn out to be a great family activity. A number of designs from the Domvs Romana are being featured in this information sheet. We are also providing a sheet of blank tiles. Getting to work… 1. Fetch a piece of cardboard to serve as a base. The thicker it is the better. 2. Divide the sheet into a grid of 1cm squares. 3. Sketch the design you want to create on a different piece of paper. The Romans were very fond of geometric patterns, but you can opt for a different composition, like your family’s coat of arms. Anyway, it is entirely up to you, but keep in mind that the neater it is the better it will look. 4. Transfer your design on the grid by marking the colour of each square with the same colour of the tile that is to be affixed there.

Its Andy Magro from the Maltese Ex Servicemens Association of NSW . In regards to the mass of Our Lady of Victories held at St Mary's Cathedral in Sydney the banner in the photos is our RSL banner and we normally lead the other banners. The Cathedral was packed with parishioners for the Mass . What the parishioners are not aware of is that when we proceed around inside the Cathedral we stop at the ""Monument to the unknown soldier"" which is located at the rear, right hand side of the Cathedral, we recite the Ode of Remembrance and lay a posy of flowers on behalf of our association. This monument was placed in St Mary's Cathedral in 1931 and at the time was the only monument to a unknown soldier in Australia.

Although the Agency continued to strive to achieve satisfactory results in the number of visitors and generation of revenue it closed its books with a deficit. Besides organising several popular exhibitions and participated in important exhibitions abroad it continued to invest more in the sites under its management. During the year under review it also increased the number of staff employed not only to improve its operations but also to increase the resources needed for the vast number of cultural activities, projects and work carried out throughout the year. The Agency finances its operations through revenues, mainly from admission fees to museums and sites, and also from a Government subvention. The net revenue generated from admission fees by the Agency in 2019 reached €8,657,464 (2018: €8,957,154). A government subvention of €5,199,998 (2018: €5,049,996) was received during the year to meet the Agency's administrative expenditure for the financial year ended 31 December 2019. Furthermore, an amount of €253,836 (2018: €213,869) is paid to Government as rent on various sites and premises occupied by Heritage Malta.
