Preslav Treasure

A team of archeologists in Veliki Preslav has discovered a unique golden heart previously applied to the garment of a high-ranking person.

Archeologists assume that this person was Tsaritsa Maria, wife of Tsar Petar (927-970).

The team of archaeologist Georgi Maystorski uncovered the eastern gate of Veliki Preslav - the second capital of the First Bulgarian Kingdom, reports the BTA wire service.

After four years of research, Maystorski and his team found proof and precise parameters of the defence installation.
