Paper read at the Conference on Maritime Archaeology, Maritime Museum, 2002It is not unreasonable to assume that Gozo, too, was
seen as a similar haven. However, on the basis that
present day Gozo is devoid of any good natural
harbours, some have, not unreasonably, dismissed
the possibility that the island could have had any
significant maritime role in antiquity.6 Through this
paper I intend to show that the island did indeed
have its fair share of maritime activity, an activity
that would have needed more than small open bays
to be sustained.peer-reviewe
