For those in America with access to the Smithsonian Channel, the program Sacred Sites is doing an episode on the megalithic temples of Malta on the 3rd September, which appear to have been abandoned in the mid 24th century BC. The program will touch upon the idea that the abandonment may have been due to climatic effects caused by an impact event around 2350 BC (see my our paper here for example [www.researchgate.net]). I was interviewed for the program last year on this angle, and I may even survive the editing process.

More information can be found here [www.smithsonianchannel.com]. The program was made by the same crew that made Sacred Sites: Ireland [www.smithsonianchannel.com] which was featured here [www.hallofmaat.com] which is also available in full on youtube here [www.youtube.com]
