Thracian

Last week, Bulgarian archaeologists unearthed an unusual 13th-century grave in an ancient city named Thracian.

Thracian, which is more than 7,000 years old, was only discovered 20 years ago and is home to a number of vampire grave sites.

Going down to the underworld alive was something Thracian shamans just did, as natural as singing along the forest paths.

In that abject figure you look in vain for the dash of Thracian blood, or seek the descendant of the Roman legionary.

Indeed in Homer it is not but which means Thracian, of or belonging to the country called Thrace, .

The same seems to be true of the Thracian minstrel Thamyris mentioned in Il.

He fights also with the 'Thracian' god Ares, as well as with Aphrodite.

"Surely this is Mercury as well as Hercules that we have found among the Thracian mountains," said he with a smile.
