What will,history recall about you . . .how will we be remembered?

In Malta there is a place  in northwest heading toward Marfas ridge ,where you would cross the Island from width its full of nice little bays Marfa bay,Armina bay. Some little places only the locals would know and patronise quiet a bit.

At Weekend there is throughly pleasant, cheap yet very hospitable places.

There are towers and actual pirate old homes,one visited where you can see anyone approaching from far off,further should you need to escape there an underground cave leading onto the Mediterian sea.

One might even suggest there is a wiff of romance about this undeveloped area of 'an Island basking in the hot summer sun'.

Plus the history of wars and civilisation trying to own this arcapalyo in the sea.

You will if fortunate come across Selmun palace.

Here is where the bodies of around several dozen Palestine Christian's Knights are believed to be buried,there remains brought over at cost when the Knights had to depart Jeruslam.

These Palastine Christians after excile began to live with the local Maltese some time 600 year after the Lords death.

They worked hard in a most difficult environment growing crops like Olives and Artichokes, developing a unigue structure of water saving aqueducts,plus farming techniques,at that time not known to residents of the Islands.

Another unigue factor is that current population share an amazing feature, they are slightly more Olive toned,and noticeably smaller.
The woman are beautiful nearly always with long very dark hair.

The local Church is called the 'ransom Church',due to a practice these noble people began,many centuries ago when the Turks attacked the islands they took people away as slaves,these Palastine excile's  began to communicate with the attackers,beginning to raise funds to buy back captives.

We are talking huge amounts,even by today's economic values.

The amount raised by hard work, perhaps some treasures brought over from the holy land.(huge question mark here).

Such 'Ramsons'even by nowerdays days standerds are incredible mark of the character of these people.They learnt from the established communities how to defeat these enemies or retreat till they had left,but the attitude of paying 'Ramson', became world wide.

These days nothing is obvious about this community ,but the graveyard unknown and the Church of Ramson nearby.

Oh and something in the gene pool.
