“Archaeology” Magazine about the Discoveries in Karanovo
The latest issue of the American magazine “Archaeology” published an article and a leading photograph upon page 3 about the finds made by the team of the Bulgarian archaeologist Vesselin Ignatov in 2009 and the restoration work done by Sylvia Borissova. Under the title “Royal Thracian Tomb” it gives an account of the tomb discovered last year in Karanovo. The author supposes that it belonged to a member of the family of the last Thracian king Remetalcus III, because of the splendid funerary gifts, found within.
