By the second century BC, the Roman Empire and Carthage were wrestling for dominance in the Mediterranean. After centuries of power struggles, the two super powers engaged in three major battles, known as the Punic Wars. In 146 BC the Romans defeated their opponents, completely destroyed the city of Carthage (in modern-day Tunisia) and took control of Malta.
The remains of a wealthy Roman household, the ruins of Domvs Romana were accidentally discovered in 1881. Although very little still stands of the original house, some of its incredible mosaic floors are still intact. Beauty buffs will enjoy the selection of archaeological artefacts, including a collection of Roman-era glass perfume bottles and ornate hairpins, which can be viewed in the adjoining museum.

Near Mdina, this is a museum with the remains of a Roman house. Might be interesting to visit if you are very interested in history.
Technically in 'Rabat', however just opposite the gate you can find this locality bustling with local charm. Previously the residence of a wealthy Roman aristocrat, this ancient townhouse, which is now a museum, houses intricate mosaic floors and several precious Roman remains which have survived for centuries.
