Brief text accompanying this video (sans commentary) from the Times of Malta:
Government workers stumbled on an ancient tomb during excavation works at Ġnien Ħal Warda in Attard this morning.
The tomb including skeletal remains and an amphora.Attard Local Council, which is responsible for the works, immediately alerted the Superintendence of Cultural Heritage, whose experts are trying to date the find.
Council officials said the remains could be over 2,500 years old.
Vodpod videos no longer available.
I’m guessing that’s a Dressel 20 amphora, which would make this a 2nd or 3rd century A.D. group burial, but I will happily be corrected on that identification.

UPDATE (A few hours later):
Just came across this news report (with sound) which seems to suggest the burial is Punic, but I don’t have a clue what they’re saying:
