In the 1940s, archaeologists discovered the ancient city of Seuthopolis in Bulgaria, the capital of the Odrysian Kingdom beginning in the 4th century BC. Unfortunately, after the destruction of a nearby dam the valley was flooded and the city drowned. Now over half a century later, a project proposed by Bulgarian architect Zheko Tilev would restore the city by building a huge circular dam (1,377 feet in diameter and 65 in height) around it and draining out the water. If this project is completed it would prove to be a marvelous success and a huge tourist attraction to Bulgaria.
