A seal of Tsar Simeon was found in Veliki Preslav, archeologist Irina Shtereva, manager of the research team, said, BNR (Bulgarian National Radio) announced.

The seal is intact. It is made of lead, with an image of Jesus Christ on one side and the Holy Mother - on the other.

Similar is the recently found seal of Boris-Mihail, father of Simeon, but the inscription is in Greek. Archeologists dated the seal from the first years of Simeon's rule.

This year Irina Shtereva's team will work on an impressive building, located opposite the Throne Chamber in Veliki Preslav.

The excavations in Preslav will continue until August 28.
