FROM THE BYZANTINE ENCYCLOPAEDIA 'SVIDAS'
westgoti	FROM THE BYZANTINE ENCYCLOPAEDIA 'SVIDAS' Under the Emperor Justinian, Tervel, the ruler of the Bulgarians (700-721), was at the height of his prosperity. Justinian himself, and Constantine, the son of Heraclius, paid him tribute. He would put down his shield, which he carried in time of war, and turn it upside down, then the whip he used to guide his horse, and have money piled on to them until both were covered. He would lay his spear on the ground and from one end to the other and to a great height he would have silk garments piled on it. Filling purses with gold and silver coins, he distributed them to the soldiers, throwing gold with his right hand and silver with his left hand. In 705 Khan Tervel's army helped Emperor Justinian II to regain his throne. The grateful basileus welcomed the Bulgarian Khan in Constantinople with great honors, putting a royal mantle on his shoulders and showering him with gifts. Khan Tervel and Emperor Justinian stood together as equals at the parade of Byzantine troops. And best of all, under the new treaty of 716 Bulgaria received, for the first time, lands south of the Balkan range: the region of Zagora in Eastern Thrace, through which many strategic routes passed. Defeated and humiliated, Byzantium was committed to pay annual tribute to Bulgaria. Furthermore, the Khan was awarded the title of Caesar, making him second only to the emperor. This was the first time in Byzantine history that a foreigner was bestowed such a title, and a lead seal reading "Mother of God, help the Caesar Tervel" attests to the honor. http://www.macedoniainfo.com/TsarKrum.htm 1941-1944 BULGARIA LIBERATED OR OCCUPIED MACEDONIA? http://www.macedoniainfo.com/Macedonia=WestBulgaria.htm
