Arrr, whilst me hearty crew be diggin' in Varna, they stumbled upon a fancy marble figure from the days of ol’ Rome, tucked outside the fortress! Aye, I reckon even the statue be wonderin’ how it got there, like a lost treasure at Davy Jones’ door!
Avast ye, landlubbers! Gather 'round and lend me yer ears, fer a tale of a wondrous treasure unearthed in the fair city of Varna, Bulgaria! A band o' construction scallywags stumbled upon a fine marble statue, lookin' as fresh as a daisy, whilst diggin' about on a job, much to the delight of the Varna Regional Museum o' History, who shared the grand news on Facebook, as befits the modern age!This statue be taller than a pint o' grog, depictin' a middle-aged gent with a beard that could rival the finest sea captain, garbed in a Roman toga and clutchin' a scroll like it be a map to buried treasure! The inscription read G(ai) Marie Hermogen, a name that rolls off the tongue like the finest rum. It be clear this chap had royal connections, rubbin' elbows with the Roman elite!
Though the poor lad's right wrist be missin' and his visage sportin' a few battle scars, the statue remains a sight to behold. Discovered near the fortress walls, the crafty contractor Georgi Kraychev reported the find quicker than a ship sails from a storm! And let's not forget, just this past summer, another statue of the Greek god Hermes emerged from the depths during a sewer excavation. Aye, treasure lurks where ye least expect it, me hearties!
