Reconstruction of Sevtopolis Starts

Sevtopolis - the capital of the ancient Thracian Kingdom, founded in 5th century BC, on the territory of modern day Bulgaria - will be rebuilt near the town Shipka. This is what the Kazanlak municipality's project for the reconstruction of the ancient city reads. At present the Sevtopolis' remains are on the bottom of the Koprinka dam, but before the ancient city was covered by the reservoir's waters experts had taken shots of it. It is these photos that will help the reconstruction of the Thracian capital. The rebuilt city will be situated on 5 ha in Krunska mogila locality.
