The Sciberras Peninsula is a strip of land in the South Eastern Region of Malta, between the Grand Harbour in the south and Marsamxett Harbour in the north.{{sfn|Blondi|1997|p=78}}{{sfn|Auzias|Labourdette|2002|p=128}} It is called a peninsula, despite the absence of an isthmus, and at the end of this feature stands the Mount Sciberras, which gave its name to the peninsula.{{sfn|Blondi|1997|p=78}}{{sfn|Blasi|2013|p=38}}{{sfn|Allison|2013|p=8}} During the Arab occupation the peninsula was called Mu'awiya, which has been taken up in Maltese as Xagħriet Mewwija (uncultivated and undulating heaths).{{sfn|Delbeke|Schraven|2012|p=215}} The capital of Valletta is located on the Sciberras Peninsula, as is the suburb Floriana.{{sfn|Auzias|Labourdette|2002|p=155}} The name comes from the old Maltese family name Sciberras or Xiberras, who would have owned the land.{{sfn|Guillaumier|2002|p=869}} References Bibliography - {{cite book |last=Allison |first=Olive |date=2013 |title=Streets of Valletta |url= |location= |publisher=Palmyra Printers |ref=harv |isbn= |author-link= }}
