Temple of Cybele, Durankulak

The Temple of Cybele located on the largest of two islands in Lake Durankulak dates from the end of the 4th century BC, and functioned until the 1st century BC.
It is a cave temple situated in the interior of a karst cave on the south coast of the island and dates back to the Hellenistic era or Hellenism. During the excavations, a goddess vault and other finds from this period were discovered: two ancient Greek black-cantaris, amphora tara and handles with seals from the islands of Rhodes and Thassos, Kos, Herakles and other classical Aegean centers.
This Cybele temple is part of the Archaeological Complex Durankulak Lake, which features eight individual incarnations from different cultures and sites, including Hamangia culture.
