Bulgaria Archaeologist Finds Unique Golden Chariot from Ancient Thrace |
| An exhibition displaying an absolutely unique golden decoration of a chariot from Ancient Thrace was opened Wednesday in the Mall of Sofia, in the downtown of the Bulgarian capital. The Thracian chariot in question was technically in fact found in 1976 near the village of Karanovo but no one had realized its existence. Only at the beginning of 2009, archaeologist Veselin Ignatov, who is the head of the history museum in the town of Nova Zagora, Southeast Bulgaria, and a specialist on Thracian chariots, actually discovered it as he was inspecting earlier finds stored in the museum basement.
