Valletta (Malta), July 22 : Archaeologists have uncovered the foundations of a semi-circular bastion or tower dating to the Late Middle Ages in the town of Mdina in Malta, which is being considered an extraordinary discovery which may shed light on one of the darkest periods of Maltese history.
According to a report carried out in the web portal DI-VE, the almost intact foundations were found directly below Council Square and Xara Palace during the course of preparatory works by the Restoration Unit aimed at consolidation of the Mdina bastions.
