Thracian sanctuary in Gluhite kamani area
Type: Archaeological site
The Thracian sanctuary in area of "Gluhite kamani" ("The Deaf stones") near village of Malko Gradishte is the largest Thracian cult complex of rock niches. More than hundred of trapezium shaped niches are carved on monolithic rock, which arises from the earth like a giant, 30 meters high, tooth. The role of these holes is not fully understood, but is supposed they were used as funeral urns. 50 meters away from the niches are located several megalithic tombs, two of which perfectly preserved.
