[RickyGTAS]

Stupid gipsy.

[farkrel]

these people who where digging... those people in bulgaria are called TSIGANI they are every where they are the main thieves in bulgraia no one can stop them except skinheads!!!!!! so when u come here to bulgaria be careful if u see a light black guy with a wagon

[britewired]

Well, we can sit behind ou computers talking about what a waste it is, but those people need to eat. Thats the bottom line imo

[properjujitsu]

I know such people who do this....u wouldn't want to fuck with them. They have officials in their pockets so it's hard to do anything.

[properjujitsu]

What and u think that the Brits excavating africa and egypts and the rest of the world was ok??? FUCKOFF!!!

[samurai2828]

The government is always telling us we can't do things... Who are they to claim ownership of antiques that have no owner? Fuck them.

[gringoroko]

fucking gypsies. lowlife gypsies. they r worse than niggers.

[ivanratman]

@gringoroko hey shithead why do you think our country is worse than your

you shouldnt judge us you probably havent even been to bulgaria

[gringoroko]

@ivanratman

tikvo, tikvo....! Kakvo tochno prochete koeto da e sreshtu Bulgaria. Ili moje bi za teb ciganite i Bulgaria sa edno i su6to. Ako si ciganin razbiram twoeto negoduvanie.

Cheers,

Shithead.

[mcnutty226]

whats so damn wrong about it these people are digging up history and if theres shit lados of it the bloody government should get there massive ego's down there and dig them selfs

[prpetrov]

This is all about conspiracy against Bulgaria they don't want to be attractive tourist destination because it is cheaper here than Greece, Italy or Spain and our corrupt government is destroying everything because tourism are big money. Greece, Italy , Spain's economy are based mainly on tourism and they don't want another player like Bulgaria. I live in Dobrudza and here you can find ancient ceramics in almost every field. You can find coins Greek and Skytian dated 600-500 BC.

[lkazakov]

bulgarians dont think much about the long term effect... its sad but thats how it is..

[treasurefindermd]

Great info, added to my site and subscribes...

[iLikePIEalot316]

keep the night and day hawking going dont listen to these people that do the same thing for a living.

Those people are far worse, they steel from the tax payer and call them selves great but they just take for there own dust collector club & stick it to us people if we pick up a bottle or coin at place that mite get bull dozed and a new place built.

There is not enough time for them find every thing before progress hides it deeper or destroys it. We fellow THR's will not go quietly.

[geogodley]

what about democratic salvage rights & not letting the "government" commit the same crime of treasure hunting theft monopoly?

[geogodley]

why does england allow people to keep lost & found antiquities whereas greece doesn't?

[liamthetiger]

@geogodley dont think england allow you to keep finds, if an item is found you have to tell the authorities who value the find, decide what to do with it, ie you keep it or they take, if the find is of value, they give you a percentage of the value... sorry about the spelling

[geogodley]

@liamthetiger i have some newspaper articles showing people keeping the most of finds (underwater shipwrecks, coins in fields..) whereas in greece the "government" takes all, which discourages anyone from doing anything.

[skokondrela77]

тия цигани ни излагат пред целия свет, мързеливо племе. Ако ги накарам да копаят лозе например, ще реват, ама щом е за бела.... стават много работливи

[WRAITHANGEL77]

I feel sorry for all those who spoke on your film bro . you will probably be digging them up very soon.

[Djkrudz]

where is this place? anyone can tell me? which city? in BULGARIA MAP?

No I dont want to go there to DIG!

[DISHLQNOV]

bulgarian ar good ppl.gypsis is a big problem here in BG.

[ipodtouch20]

The diggers are just poor gypsies, it's horrible. I am Bulgarian and have seen many destroy sites.

[triezen007]

All these hunters are dumbasses destroying history for profit....they should all be put in prison and the key thrown away.

[obbabob]

@triezen007 Ah but then someone would find the key :)

[dgdbg]

My heart hurts a lot from this.Very very sad ;(

[2bornot2b1984]

That sucks a lot, but you cant really expect people who have no work to leave stuff in the ground that can be sold for food to feed their families.

Looks like they have a lot of fertile ground and sun though, a 12 x 12 greenhouse can grow a lot of food.

Everyone should start growing their own food.

[koomshiqta]

For those who do not know: Bulgaria was founded in 681.Тhe ottoman slavery was in the period from 1393 to 1878.

[ivilina3012]

You see now I have one of the 1st Bibles printed in Bulgaria after our liberation from Ottoman rule - this is from before America existed as a country.I will not give it to the museums when I know that they will sell it too.I'll keep it safe until someday when my grandchildren or their ones have that insurance.

[mongobicepsa]

Bullshit...complete bullshit. Bulgaria liberate from the ottoman slavery in 1878 and America is established in 1776... So stop talking nonsense...

[WRAITHANGEL77]

@ivilina3012 if what you say is true you are an idiot for sharing this info. first you'll probably get the vatican breathing down your back and your family not to mention who ever else . in the interest of self preservation keep any more future revelations to your self.

[XxnEr0xXxMaNexX]

тъпа работа ......

[thracianglad]

In Bulgaria the special police has the care of the treasure hunters, but they are too much, they are everywhere!

[Vunderthaal]

WTF ???? if you got them on camera why didn`t you relay the information and the dvds to the police ?!?!?!?!?!?!

it seems the journalist is also making a few silver coins on the expense the this tragedy !

[scotland638]

Bulgaria's loss is humanity's loss.

[yellowman88]

Wow That is such a loss for Bulgaria. Really sad!! Not many people know how rich in History Bulgaria is other then history buffs.

[yellowman88]

Berbatov's from Bulgaria.

[XxnEr0xXxMaNexX]

xaxa yes he is :D

[danzig387]

LIft the restrictions of Communism and Capitalism triumphs!

[dragoran]

He he, the "young man" is a Gypsy XD

[XxnEr0xXxMaNexX]

HHHAAHA Yeah he is XAXA I'm glad u noticed :D xaxa

[sweetfeat1]

the petro station owner is smoking a cigarette...

[wishmaster2801]

I am from Bulgaria :)

Поздрави

[XxnEr0xXxMaNexX]

bravo we :D i kvo :D

[sleeper7271]

"poverty is not a excuse"!? Stupid fuking bitch!Taking her national big as$ salary it must be very easy for her to speak eh?

[Plumbata]

People have to do what they must in order to survive, and without an infrastructure adequate enough to support the people who are alive today in that area, it is an exercise in sheer pretension to condemn them for excavating their livelihood at the expense of people who have been dead for centuries or millennia.

[Plumbata]

As a Psych/Archaeology major, I find it rather unfortunate, but as a treasure and relic hunter since the age of 5, my main thought is "I f'ing wish I was there!"

I dig historic era dump sites in search of bottles and other relics, and find it to be just as enjoyable as sex, and at times, even more so. I never plan to stop, though I do plan to convert my avocation into a stable and enjoyable vocation which will help preserve the history of Humanity.

[paddy260]

very sad,the people are trying to earn money; its the goverments fault, but its awful to watch these people destroying world heritage

[GeRmANpWR52]

if u need money ull do anything and i know bulgaria i lived there

[iassen1]

Yeah it's true. I am from Bulgaria. :)

[XxnEr0xXxMaNexX]

епа тогава си говори на езика ! :П

[landsker]

All good to condemn the treasure hunters, who sell what they find to raise cash, to eat and live. In contrast... the academics who criticize them are usually well fed, getting their salaries paid from a public purse. Hunger drives humans, and better sell a few old bits of tat, than to invade other countries for oil etc...

[xxLatinKillaxx]

the invasion of war was the common thing in the old era so your very right on that which explains the nordic Vikings raids and invasion of western europe

[Tihbialdunav]

Did you see tha dark skin of those thieves? They are clearly not Bulgarian, but Gypsy. For Gypsies, who come from India and have nothing to do with our European culture, stealing is a way of life.

[titubeta]

Be rational. Whoever they are its happening in Bulgaria. If they are ethnic minority they could not operate without support of mafia n corrupt politician. Nothing to do with color of skin.

[FFSINEEDANAME]

if it helps you sleep at night, keep believing that

[LabRat6619]

Better than using the shovel on a tourists head to get his wallet.

Poor people want to eat not look at ancient art, that comes a long way down the list of human priorities!

[VelvetVellocet]

This is very sad.  Bulgaria is losing priceless artifacts to thieves.

[GaijinGDB]

Well, although I understand the need for people to feed themselves, this being the easiest way, it seems, preserving the area (which would take government efforts) would probably bring more riches to the region through tourism (which will not just dry uo like their supply of treasures will). There are plenty of people who would spend their time and money visiting here. But people will always want a quick buck with minimum effort, and this is the result.

[shaytardss]

that COW had some nice big tits! OMG I am feeling so hard right now.

[0gar]

This is the problem with history here in Balkans: we can't dig here a hole in the ground without finding something historical: some ceramical dishes from Roman Empire, swords of cavalry of Otoman Empire or shells belonging of Third Reich together with Russian tanks. What the heck we gonna do every time we dig up something old? The Museum is closed and if we give to local authorities all the junks we found in our backyards, they will throw it all away at the garbage all the stuff they can't sell

[c4h6i2s]

Fuck the Romans they were far more vicious than the Nazi's...finders keepers i say

[huebear]

"Poverty" is no excuse?! Obviously this lady doesn't go without meals... she has no right to make that statement! These people are just trying to feed themselves!

[pcsbyte]

snipwea  up.

[TheJudge1850]

Bla, bla, bla....who the hell cares about past(history) when the present is a shit and future is hopeless? The rich get richer and the poor gets poorer. This is the truth. Those poor guys have the right to feed theirs kids. Or maybe not!!!

[fuckedupsickfuckboy]

you read my mind!!

[freedominsomalia]

does that guy think he owns it everything? let people do what they want

[supr4]

fucking faggot

[boosted28]

That old gold looks like a Di*k and balls

rite? hahaha

It's worth more than my house lol

[KasparHauser4]

I am with the treasure hunters. They need the money. The Hell with the museums the museums of Europe are overflowing with artifacts and relics. They do not need more.

[dableutyef]

It's more about how the treasure hunters damage the artifacts and ruins

[limpiomott2]

The biggest problem in society today is that we live in a "Here & Now" world. The majority of people are only concerned about what happens today and forget about tomorrow. History is something that is written about by other people and taught (to a degree) in schools.. But when school is over reality takes control...Will I have a meal tonight or will I go to bed hungry...This is the plight of two thirds of the world.

[Dorothyinstead]

Another example of how the wealthy increase their powerbase. Another example of the ever increasing disparity between "have's" and "have nots".

If you can read this comment you are one of the "have's"

[andy7666]

I thought that..

[andy7666]

These idiots have no idea what they are doing! What swine! The government needs to pull its head out of its arse - its the only institution that can do anythng here realistically, thier inaction reeks of corruption and apathy - do Bulgarians care abouth thier history? No more than any other Western people I'd imagine, the sad thing is if this happened in Western Europe people wouldn't care, in fact it DOES happen - just not on this scale. This is unforgivable, the government has to do something!

[TheImmigrantsong]

@andy7666 w8 a minute dont talk about things you dont know

[thpt]

Well if the rich Westerners want to keep the locals from making their living, then the rich Westerners should figure out how to lift them out of poverty.

[OGRMaster]

Its the poverty to blame!

[kalashnicough]

мръсни цигани

[videodude088]

ur mom. heck ur great great grandmoms a gypsie

[creten69]

i LOVE treasur rrrrrrrr. I cant stand national parks and tourists attractions.I love that $10 for a million dollar vase.Hunger is'nt an excuse?...,thats insane.wow! e bay bulgaria ,quick!

[jw13303]

So, leaving this in the ground is better than discovering them? If so, I think the WORLD has some bones to be putting back!

Egypt,Turkey, Iraq, Iran, cambodia, bulgaria, chili,peru, Usa, ect...

[Club5K]

Those are my Thraco-Roman ancestors and now Bulgarian Slavs are stealing their graves just for money.............. !!!!!

[74dorado]

@ Club5K, italians must take your DNA and clone you -- you are the first almost pure roman in the world which ancestors kept their full blood purity from marriage with bulgarians from VI to XVI century.

on west you can buy romanian coins stolen by romanian treasure hunters in Romania -- maybe really from your ancestors

[BulgarianTuber]

I hope the Bulgarians find what they are looking for.
