Mnajdra temples solstice and equinox alignment
The Mnajdra temples are also famous for their solar alignment with the solstices and equinoxes. During these important solar calendar periods the rising sun casts its light down the main entrance (that may be the inspiration for Egypts Pharaoh tombs door to the afterlife (http://www.everythingselectric.com/forum/index.php?topic=315.msg1465#msg1465)) of the south Mnajdra temple.

Maltas temples builders and the solar alignment at Mnajdra

Maltas temples builders used them as a solar calendar at Mnajdra
In these photos of the Mnajdra temple during the autumnal equinox you can see that the peoples shadows go straight down the main entrance (which also has the amazing quartz crystal that looks like a lightning strike or electric discharge pattern).
When the equinox sun rises it does not go straight down this corridor but slightly to the south side. There is what is called an altar at the end and only the left third of it has the equinox sunrise light shining on it. This shows that when Malta's "Temples" were reconstructed by modern humans we did not know of its solar alignment and importance or there are some other reasons. If we did not know its alignment then we rebuilt it slightly wrong or the sun/earth relationship has moved a lot since those or it was not set for those dates or it shines where it does for a purpose we dont know or it was aligned for a different date.
What this may show is that everything we are officially told about Maltas "Temples" is a guess. Which it is. We know absolutely nothing about the purpose of Maltas "Temples" and we dont even know they are temples. We have transfered our thoughts and civilisation onto these people who we have no record of their language, culture, thoughts or what the temples were about.
The "altar" it shines on looks more like a shelf and there are a lot of them in Maltas "temples". They look similar to the Skae Brae shelves in the Orkney Islands.
Why build so many temples on such a small island? If they are temples then why are the apses/lobes so small if people are meant to gather their? Why are the apses/lobes not decorated buy plain?
These buildings may have been used as places of learning/education but to just say they are only temples, when we have no evidence that they are, limits what they could be and especially our understanding of them.

On the 21st June during the summer solstice the first rays of the sun light up the edge of a megalith found to the left of the central doorway connecting the first pair of chamber to the inner chamber of the Lower Mnajdra Temple. At the same time at Hagar Qim sunlight passes through a hole known as he oracle hole which opens onto a chamber on the northeast side of the structure. Here the sun’s rays project a disk of light onto a stone slab at the entrance to the apse. As the minutes pass the disc becomes a crescent, then elongates into an elipse, then elongates still further and finally sinks out of sight as though into the ground.

And what of the summer solstice and the "oracle hole"? The south temple of Mnajdra looks like a sound recording studio (http://www.everythingselectric.com/forum/index.php?topic=315.msg1478#msg1478) with its pitted decoration to help tune frequencies. There are lots of "oracle holes" in Malta's temples but they make no sense to be a sound or voice of god created by the priests. They could be to let natural energy in or out of the temples. Or could they be used to help input sound into the "temples" or used to help with the creation of the Malta temples sound system?
