theory that ancient Thracians used to chop into pieces their rulers' bodies and buried them in different places.

Why is that such a shock? The Polish Catholics wanted JPII's heart buried (or displayed) in Poland. Apparently it is (was) a fairly common practice for those who made it to Saint status.
