/ world today news/ The archaeological pearl of Bulgaria is the Akra fortress on Cape Akin near Chernomorets. It’s an early medieval city that was burned down in a barbarian invasion, so it’s the Bulgarian Pompeii in miniature.
This was announced yesterday by the head of the NIM Prof. Bozhidar Dimitrov. A day earlier, he first told “Press” about the find, near Chernomorets: “During an Avar siege in 584, the fortress walls held, but incendiary materials were transferred. So the city burned down, the roofs buried everything in the houses and the Avars could not rob it.” “The relics of St. John the Baptist and the vampire that popped up during the excavations in Sozopol bring more money than an average factory. The vampire is number one in tourist tours in Europe,” said the head of NIM.
