The Thracian Oracle: Has the Famous Sanctuary of Dionysus Been Found?


The object is called "Prav Kamen", in translation “an upright stone”. The site itself has a complex structure with a cult character, the first evidence being provided by the dolmen that serves as an entrance. This entrance leads to a large round, stone platform, on the north side of which stands a large stone block. It is oriented to the east and has the shape of a human head. It is visibly charred from a height of 70 cm (28”) from its base, indicating that a tripod was probably used here to light a fire.  Sacrifices made in this fashion were popular in antiquity.
