Kaliakra was important fortress-harbour on the north Black Sea coast of Bulgaria during the 7th/8th-10th/11th centuries. There the continuity between the Late Antiquity of Byzantium and the early medieval period of Bulgaria is documented excellently. This fortress-harbour played an extremely important military-strategic and overseas trade role for the Bulgarian state with its strong walls, first-rate harbour area and numerous all-purpose ships.
