Archaeologists studying a site located in the northwestern part of the Outer City of Bulgaria’s first capital Pliska have discovered a lead seal of Boris-Mihail, Prince and Baptizer of Bulgarians (852-889). Finding the seal is a great success for archaeologists, because the building was abandoned and all items were taken out in the Middle Ages, announced the National Historical Museum.
The building was probably the home of an aristocrat connected with the ruling family. He most probably left his home when the capital of Bulgaria moved from Pliska to Preslav. The large architectural complex dates back to the 10th-11th century AD.
