Ħaġar Qim is an ancient Megalithic Temple found on the island nation of Malta. It is one of the older temples in the country and dates back to around 3600 BCE – 3200 BCE. The is made from globigerina limestone, which has caused it to suffer from extreme weathering and surface flaking. Although most of the temple was buried, the tallest stones were left exposed and can be seen in 18th and 19th century paintings. ?a?ar Qim was first excavated in 1839 and several important cultural objects were uncovered. In 1992, ?a?ar Qim and four other megalithic structures on Malta were recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
