Exceptionally valuable statue of Venus with height of 15 centimeters was found during the excavation works at the Roman castel Trimamium. This was announced by the director of the regional historical museum in Ruse, mister Nikolay Nenov.
That bronze figure was found at pit, dated to the Roman period, where were found 36 coins, dated to I-III century.
By the Archaeologist Vurbin Vurbanov, the statue has been produced at local atelier. The find might be preserved and restored, because it is thick in tarnish.
