It became known that Italian scientists said that they had discovered the burial place of the ruler of Wallachia, Vlad Tepes.
He is also known as Count Dracula. The writer Bram Stoker chose him as the prototype of the hero of his novel.
It is reported that back in 2014, scientists suggested that Vlad Tepes could be buried in the Neapolitan church of Santa Maria la Nova.
Over the past 10 years, they studied the tombstone inscription from the Turbolo Chapel. After deciphering the text, the researchers concluded that it was related to Count Dracula.
At a conference in Romania, the scientists said the text is a panegyric to Vlad III.
It mentions “Vlad, ruler of the Wallachians,” who was killed twice, fled from his enemies, and went in peace, praising God, after which he was honored as a martyr.
The text was dated 1480. Scholars have determined that it was created from Ancient Greek with the addition of five widows of writing of Balkan origin.
Some historical sources say that Count Dracula was taken captive by the Turks. His daughter ransomed him and brought him to Italy, where he later died.
