His head was cut off and severed and sent to the Authorities in Solun, so what I want to know is what, happened to it?

Are you sure about that? I know that he was killed by the turks but they never got to his body.

Quote:
"The Turks, having burned the village of Banica to the ground, severed Delcev's head and sent it to the authorities in Salonika. The headless body lies in a stone sarcophagus under belfry in the churchyard of the half-underground church of Sv.Spas(Holy Saviour) in Skopje.


Excerpt from Stojan Pribichevich's book : Macedonia : It's People and History.

Hm as far as I know he actually got a decent burial, coz even the Turks considered him as a great leader etc.
