Marcianopolis was an ancient Greek, then Roman city and the largest city founded on the territory of the town of Devnya municipality (20 km West from Varna). Remains from the Roman city include the amphitheatre, some streets and many exquisite mosaics of the House of Antiope, a Roman villa of the late 3rd or early 4th century AD which are exhibited in the Museum of Mosaics, some in situ. The fortress wall protected an area of more than 70 hectares, which is twice more than the Ancient Odessos (now Varna). Marcianopolis is one of the biggest monetary treasuries in the world. About 100,000 silver denarii minted between 64 and 238 AD were found there.
