STATUE OF A GREEK GOD WAS UNCOVERED

The statue was well-preserved, archaeologists said.  

Archaeologists near Bulgaria’s southeastern border with
Greece uncovered a nearly 7-foot statue of the ancient
Greek god Hermes during a dig this week.

The unexpected find happened during excavation of an
ancient Roman sewer in the abandoned city of Heraclea
Sintica, which was founded by King Philip II of Macedon
between 356 and 339 B.C.E.

The sprawling city was devastated by an earthquake in
388 A.D.
