In page History of Malta:

"

Phoenicians—possibly from Tyre—began to colonize the islands around the early 8th century BC[citation needed], using it as an outpost from which they expanded sea exploration and trade in the Mediterranean. They called the principal island Ann (Phoenician: 𐤀𐤍𐤍, ʾNN).[1][2][3] Necropolises have been found at Rabat on Malta and Rabat on Gozo, suggesting the main settlements were at present-day Mdina on Malta and Cittadella on Gozo.[4] The former settlement was also known as Ann,[1][2] suggesting it served as the colony's seat of government. The principal port, meanwhile, was at Cospicua on the Grand Harbor. Known simply as Maleth (𐤌𐤋𐤈, MLṬ, "The Port"), it was probably the namesake of the Greeks' and Romans' names for the entire island.[3]
