Back to Murfatlar

There is a Cyrillic inscription on the right side of M 1. Due to the insufficient quality of the available photograph, only a few of its characters can be restored. It is very possible that the inscription contains the name of a Bulgarian tsar. On two of the last rows reads "сѣи цри" (this tsar) implying that somewhere on the preceding rows is written the name of the certain tsar.
