site.btaOn this day: The Unearthing of the Preslav Treasure
On April 11, 1978, several women from a local cooperative farm working in the Castana vineyard, 3,5 km to the northwest of the remains of the Preslav palace complex, stumbled upon numerous objects, most probably unearthed by a ploughing machine the previous autumn. The excavations that followed yielded a collection of numerous golden, silver, and bronze artefacts, that was later referred to as the Treasure from Veliki (Great) Preslav.
