While there is some debate regarding who the recently discovered Bulgarian temple was dedicated to, there is no disagreement that the find is significant. Following are excerpts, for the full story visit the Sofia News Agency:
An archaeological expedition led by prominent Bulgarian Professor Nikolay Ovcharov unveiled the mystery of the excellently preserved Thracian temple in the region of Tatul village.
Though most of the archaeologists in the expedition assume that the Thracian temple was dedicated to the mythical Orpheus, there are still some suggestions that that it might have been built in honour of a Thracian king.
The sanctuary is a unique finding and a monument of the Hellenistic ages in Bulgaria, Professor Ovcharov explained. It has hidden many of the ancient sacraments and rituals administered there.
