Vinča (Belo brdo) is an archaeological site from the early neolithic period, that gave name to the culture that inhabited the Balkan peninsula and part of Central Europe since the 5.th millennium BC. It is located near Vinča town on the eastern outskirts of Belgrade, on the Danube river. This civilization relied mostly on fishing, early agriculture and mining.
The Vinča culture was pretty advanced for it’s time, even had an alphabet of their own, which is considered one of the oldest in the world. Recent discoveries showed that their main settlement was composed of well aligned houses forming streets between them.
Most figurines and artifacts from Vinča are displayed across museums and galleries in Belgrade, as part of permanent or temporary exhibitions.
