Ancient village of wizards discovered near Momchilgrad
Ancient village of magicians archaeologists discovered during excavations in the area of Momchilgrad, BNR.
Along the banks of the river Strelets archeologists have fallen more than 50 tanks, which were made known until rituals.
Facilities are of XII century and they were found burnt stones, ceramics, pieces of iron blades.
Near the altars were discovered more like tanks, but they are over 2 thousand years. According to archaeologists, it is very likely to have places for spells or spells.
It cast French-Bulgarian team of archeologists exploring other prehistoric settlement before 6 thousand on the village tops, Momchilgrad.
Their hypothesis connects the town with the legendary Troy. Senior team leader Maple Boyadjiev announced in July that found with the findings will likely confirm otherwise sensational fantasy that the ancestors of Troy are heroic people, who inhabited the lands of modern Bulgaria in the region of Momchilgrad village.
The settlement, which now digging is in direct proximity to the sanctuary of Orpheus, and considered his tomb near the village of Tatul, and not far from Perperikon inhabited during the Stone-Copper Age.
This village near the tops lived a relatively short period, probably between 4 500 – 4 000 BC., Certainly in the Stone-Copper Age, said Boyadjiev.
Then the Balkan Peninsula is the center of the development of civilization in Europe.
Archaeologist explained that at the end of the Stone-Copper Age and early Bronze Age tribes invaded from the northeast and kill the local population. Saving of aliens, then retreated to the west and south.
The latest data from the Stone-Copper Age are exactly the Rhodopes. It is possible to be near the tops of these latest settlements, says Boyadjiev.
The hopes of the Bulgarian-French team are to be illuminated about 800 years those who are between the two eras, but they are not information and evidence.
Earliest Troy appeared in the early Bronze Age, around 3 000 BC. For it is characteristic tunelesti handles, as we find here and in Orlitsa village, about 50 kilometers from the Aegean Sea, while Troy is opposite the beach. Ie of the tops have elements that are characteristic of early Troy, but here they have appeared several hundred years earlier, explained the situation Yavor Boyadjiev.
According to him, the local population has been pressed by invading tribes from the north and was forced to withdraw gradually to the south.
From the White Sea to the tops are not more than 70 kilometers, then the ship was not any problem. So we can assume that the ancestors of Troy are precisely in that region, but it is still only a hypothesis, stated the archaeologist.
