July 23, 2008 Thracian Tomb, Tarnovo, Bulgaria, 2006 Photograph by Kenneth Garrett At the ancient cult complex of Mishkova Niva, a monumental wall of white marble, mined locally in the mountains of southeastern Bulgaria, circles the ruins of a Thracian tomb from the second or third century B.C. Possibly as early as the second millennium B.C. a sanctuary took shape here, perhaps for the worship of a heroic tribal king. The site continued as a sacred place for centuries. It may have lost that status about the sixth century A.D., when Slavic invasions began to obliterate Thracian culture. (Text adapted from and photo shot on assignment for, but not published in, "Bulgaria's Gold Rush," December 2006, National Geographic magazine) 色雷斯古墓，特尔诺沃，保加利亚，2006年 在保加利亚东南部群山之中发现了古米希柯伐尼瓦宗教建筑，从公元前2,3世纪这座有纪念价值的白色大理石墙就围绕着色雷斯古墓的废墟。 大概早到公元前2000年，或许是为了敬仰英勇神武的部落酋长，圣殿在这里初具规模。几个世纪以来这里一直是圣地。大约在公元6世纪，斯拉夫人的入侵开始磨灭色雷斯文化，其神圣地位已经丧失。 图片为《国家地理杂志》2006年12月号的《保加利亚淘金热》一文而拍摄，未刊发，图文据此文改编 翻译：tomato  x0
