Notes The researches carried out by the Turkish Historical Society in various parts of Thrace since 1936 have failed to produce significant results every year. These researches have revealed that Thrace, which has long been considered a poor region in terms of ancient antiquities, was not like that at all and was full of important artifacts. In fact, it is impossible to come across the ruins of large cities and the remains of magnificent stone or marble buildings in Thrace. However, in the vicinity of today's cities and villages, there are numerous concentrated stacked hills on high ridges. These ruined hills or tumuli, which have long attracted the attention of travelers who have traveled through Thrace and whose nature remained unknown for a long time, were shown by the French archaeologist A. Dumont to be related to Herodotus' (V, 8) anecdote about the funeral customs of the Thracians, and thus proved that these were nothing but tomb monuments.
