The Vinca culture represented one of the earliest settled farming communities of southeastern Europe, dating from the 7th-5th Millennium B.C. The best known site is that of Vinca-Belo Brdo, 15 km from modern- day Belgrade, first excavated in 1908 by Miloje Vasic. The Vinca period saw the development of unprecedented levels of settlement in terms of size and density in Neolithic Europe.
