Presian I.
Presian , also Presijan ( Bulgarian Персиан , or Пресиян ), was between 836 and 852 ruler ( Khan ) of Bulgaria from the house of Krum . He was the son of the Boljar Zwiniza and nephew of the Khan Malamir . Under his rule, the Byzantine sphere of influence on the Balkan Peninsula continued to shrink ; especially ancient Macedonia came under the control of the Bulgarian Empire.
He is the namesake for the Presian Ridge on Livingston Island in Antarctica.
