About two-thirds of the former empire of Thrace now lies on territory belonging to Bulgaria. An area of great prosperity, Thrace must have derived part of its wealth from its metal deposits still in use more than 3000 years after the world's first goldwork at Varna. The past glory of Thrace is only beginning to unfold as archaeologists uncover clues from the ancient graves marked by huge mounds that dot the landscape.
