Għar Għerduf Catacombs

The Ghar Gherduf catacombs at Ta' Kercem are the only surviving early Christian catacombs or paleochristian hypogea in Gozo, Malta [1]. This unique Roman burial site has for centuries attracted the attention of scholars interested in Maltese archaeology [1]. The site was visited by erudite visitors who often included a description of the place as they did for Ggantija and the Xaghra Stone Circle [1].
