An Interdisciplinary team including Borislav Stamov, Mila Salahi, Patricia Kirilova and others, have found the seal of Khan Tervel -“The Saviour of Europe” in a US Museum in Washington. The case casts a glimpse on the damage to Bulgarian memory and history inflicted by smuggling of artifacts. There is a description in the text below the photo of the seal, as well as comments that makes us ask a few logical questions: is it possible that Tervel and Constantine IV was one and the same person? Why such similarity in their portraits? Has Bulgarian history been changed too deeply? Don’t we owe our great ancestors revealing the truth about the importance of Bulgarians in world history?
