摘要
A drystone construction means laying one stone beside another and laying course over course on top. Corbelling is a three-dimensional construction around a central axis and composes a false dome. The article uses the author's documentation and survey, comparison and a historical methodology, revealing their connections to pre-historical monuments. The vernacular architecture of Malta is used as a temporary shelter, apiary, well, irrigation system and hunters' shelters. Such objects are mostly hidden in nature but - sadly- also out of the mind of local people. This important architectural heritage needs more professional work, care and activities aimed at informing people and raising pride in the local culture.
