07/11 Ciudad bajo nivel del mar .

Esto si que no se ve todos los días; encontraron en 1948 una ciudad en la mitad de un lago en Bulgaria y ahora, han decidido renacer la ciudad construyendo un dique de 420 metros de diámetro para que el que lo desee pueda ir a recorrer la antigua ciudad en bote.

La ciudad es llamada Seuthopolis y data del siglo cuarto antes de Cristo, siendo originalmente la capital de un país llamado Odrissia.

La idea de revivir la ciudad viene de los arquitectos Tilev los cuales han sido apoyados tanto por las autoridades como otras empresas de todo el mundo.


In Bulgaria an ancient city is about to reappear from the bottom of a lake. The city is called Seuthopolis and dates from the fourth century before Christ. Back then Seuthopolis was the capitol of a country named Odrissia. It was the city of the Thracian king Seuthus the third – hence its name.

The remains of the city weren’t found until 1948 during the construction of a new dam. When the lake filled up in 1954 the city disappeared under water, twenty meters of water.

Anno 2008 fundraising has started to ‘excavate’ Seuthopolis with a circular dike measuring 420 meters in diameter. The idea comes from an office called Tilev Architects and is supported by the local authorities. According to the architects, parties from all over the world are interested to invest in the enterprise.

    [...] While also existing as a totally amazing project, this excavation also seems like it could be the start of a zombie movie.  Imagine the plucky young archeologist working late one night stumbles and falls through a previously unknown hole into an ancient sewer.  As she’s marveling at her most recent discovery she is se upon by shadows.  A few days later zombies have taken over the entire facility and the military thinks they have them contained because zombies can’t swim.  Cut to the White House, the president in the process of being brief.  “Sir…  we have bad news.  The zombies?  they’ve learned to sail.”  Cut to a schooner chock full of zombies decked out in World’s Cup Gear with a beautiful sunset in the background.
