Construction of a Luxury Hotel is Continuing in Sofia Despite the Discovery of an Ancient Roman Necr
Society | August 4, 2017, Friday // 09:56|
Work was in full swing at the building site of the first Hyatt hotel in Bulgaria, in the centre of the capital, Sofia, on Monday, Balkaninsight reported.
While numerous machines laid concrete and strengthened the foundations of the future 190-room five-star hotel, a team of archaeologists with an excavator was carefully digging a rare find out of the ground.
They recently discovered an ancient Roman tomb – part of the eastern side of the necropolis of the Roman city of Serdica, which lies under Bulgaria’s capital – which could soon be buried under the luxury new hotel.
The same fate has already befallen six other tombs discovered at the construction site in April.
