Tallin,Estonia-estonian public radio It is reported that a well-preserved fourteenth-century papal seal, or bulla, belonging to Pope Clement V was found in the Estonian capital, Tallin, on the coast of the Baltic Sea. Muinasproject archaeologist Mihkel Tammet said the bulla was found in a medieval layer that also contained ceramics and other artefacts. They believe it may have been brought to the site along with waste and soil brought from the old city to fertilize fields and gardens. Historian Ivar Leemus said, “Only three papal bulla-papal seals are known from Estonia, and they are all linked to documents in the Tallinn City Archives.” To read about the silver and gold coins found in the feature featuring portraits of several medieval Popes, visit “a list of princes“
