Għar il-Kbir is a complex of rock-cut structures in Siggiewi, Malta [1]. The structures, which were most likely originally small limestone caves, are primarily known for several cart ruts which are located next to it [1]. It is also commonly believed that several families of troglodytes inhabited the cave until 1835 [1]. The general structure of the cave system has eight caves spread across two levels [1].
