Hadzhi Georgi Naydenov-Grablasha was a Bulgarian revolutionary who served as the fourth standard-bearer in Botev's detachment.
He was born in Tulcea, but his family originated from the Shtip district. His nickname Grablasha came from the word grabla, meaning a water container suitable for carrying on one's back.
Georgi Naydenov, known as Grablasha, was one of Hristo Botev's standard-bearers. He carried his own flag, which differed in workmanship from the main flag presented by the voivode Nikola Simov. The red lion on Grablasha's flag flew over the detachment as far as Milin Kamak, where Georgi Naydenov died devoted to the ideals of the struggle for freedom.
