Information:

The most ancient population which inhabited the northern slopes of the Central Balkan and Pre-Balkan lived in the caves of Mount Vasilyov. Archeological excavations carried out in the Toplya cave near the village of Golyama Zhelyazna which started at the end of the previous century prove that the region had already been inhabited at the end of the late Paleolithic Age (40 000-10 000 BC). During the Bronze Age (3 000- 1 200 BC) the land beyond the upper reaches of the Osam river and its tributaries was inhabited by Thracians. According to Herodotus, the V c. BC Greek historian, these were members of the Krobizi tribe. The same tribes still lived in the Troyan region in the first century BC which chronologically covers the time of the Iron Age (XII - I c. BC). The burial mounds are most numerous landmarks of that time.

Short description:

During archeological excavations, many relics from this period have been discovered, including black and red ceramics made either by hand or on a pottery wheel, iron weapons, bronze and silver vessels and utensils. What has been found is proof for the comparatively high social and economic level of the local Thracian population and strongly developed cult of ancestor-worship. In 2002, archeologists unearthed the oldest known Thracian sanctuary (XIII-X1 c. BC) in the Hemus, or Stara Planina, in Turlata, a hamlet close to Troyan. Materials found during excavations of mounds in Troyan prove that there had been a Thracian population living in the site of the current town in the XI-X c. BC. In the year 15 AD the lands of present-day north Bulgaria lay within the boundaries of the Roman province of Mizia. Even in the middle of the 1st c. AD, there was a strong Roman presence in the stations situated along the road through the Balkan. The active use of the Central Balkans during the two Dacian wars fought by the Emperor Marcus Ulpius Trayanus (98-117) firmly connected the road with his name. Passed down through the ages, his name survives today in the name 'Troyan'. To date, the ruins of fifteen fortresses and dozens of Thracian sanctuaries have been found during surveys in Troyan and around. Objects discovered inside date from the Iron Age, Roman domination, late antiquity and Middle Ages, a certain mark of their constant use by the local population in the course of three thousand years.
