Title: Aspects of British colonial policies and Maltese patterns of behaviour Abstract: In this essay in attempt is made to relate some aspects of Maltese social life to the policies implemented by the British Colonial Administration. The emphasis is on economic, political and religious institutions. The aim is to provide a sociological interpretation of certain processes and patterns of behaviour as these may relate to certain historical events. The evidence for these events is drawn from published secondary sources. Therefore in these respects, at least, there is no claim for originality. Nor does this account present a comprehensive assessment of the extent of British colonial impact on Malta's soda-economic life. Important areas which were deeply influenced by the exercise of colonial power structure, like education, health and sanitation are barely touched upon Or simply mentioned in passing. Certain concepts like that of "elites" or "culture" which are widely used in this essay are intended as usually understood by sociologists. Thus the former refers to a political, economic or status minority which may be entrenched at the top of a society, group, or other social category whether this is openly democratic or not. The latter refers to the ideas, values and norms influencing social behaviour, and defining inter-relations rather than simply to any artistic or literary heritage.

Title: Two archaeological sites recently discovered at l-Iklin Abstract: The area known as L-Iklin lies on the southernmost slope of the extensive hill on which Naxxar and Gharghur are perched. To the south the slope is enclosed by a triangle formed by Birkirkara, Balzan and Lija. The area had, to the author's knowledge, never produced any archaeological finds until in 1967 a group of youths were reported in the local papers to have discovered there a megalithic temple. The second site was partially explored by means of excavation in June 1975 before a house was built. over it. Ancient remains were uncovered while a building plot was being cleared for the laying of foundations. During the excavation of the same site I came to know from several individuals having in the neighbourhood of the existence of two old cisterns in the immediate vicinity.
