They grew cereals and raised domestic livestock and, in keeping with many other ancient Mediterranean cultures, formed a fertility cult represented in Malta by statuettes of unusually large proportions. Pottery from the earliest period of Maltese civilization (known as the Għar Dalam phase) is similar to examples found in Agrigento, Sicily. These people were either supplanted by, or gave rise to a culture of megalithic temple builders, whose surviving monuments on Malta and Gozo are considered the oldest standing stone structures in the world.〔(Old Temples Study Foundation (OTSF) )〕〔(Aberystwyth, The University of Wales )〕〔David Trump et al., ''Malta Before History'' (2004: Miranda Publishers)〕 The temples date from 4000–2500 BC and typically consist of a complex trefoil design. Little is known about the temple builders of Malta and Gozo; however there is some evidence that their rituals included animal sacrifice. This culture disappeared from the Maltese Islands around 2500 BC and was replaced by a new influx of Bronze Age immigrants, a culture that is known to have cremated its dead and introduced smaller megalithic structures called dolmens to Malta,〔Daniel Cilia, ("Malta Before Common Era", in ''The Megalithic Temples of Malta'' ). Accessed 28 January 2007.〕 probably imported by Sicilian population because of the similarity of Maltese dolmens with similar constructions found in the largest island of the Mediterranean sea.〔Salvatore Piccolo, ''Ancient Stones: The Prehistoric Dolmens in Sicily''.
