Esteemed find was found by the archaeological expedition of the National Historical Museum near the town of Sozopol by the team of Kristina Panayotova from the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. The archaeologists found tomb, covered with sands hill. Among the casual ceramic cemetery gifts of the dead person 2500 years ago citizen of Appolonia there is big ceramic bowl,with three lines of long circumscription of Hellenic language.
The circumscription should give much more shine up on the history of the first democratic state in our lands.
It is interesting that the bowl was found at the lineal plot of the necropolis ( the graveyard of the town, placed near the “harmanite” beach) of the oppressor Millet- Hritiai.
The governor of the biggest town-state has been living at the end of VІ- the beginning of V century before Christ. At 515 Hristiai has been commanding the percian fleet at the war against the Scythian, has been counselor of the Persian king Darii, one of the guides on the rebellion of the Greeks at Lesser Asia against the Persian dominion.
At 494 year, after the extinction of the rebellion, obviously he has been settling with his family at Appolonia Pontic.
