Vatin Culture
The Vatin culture ( sr-Cyrl-Latn, Ватинска култура, Vatinska kultura or sr-Cyrl-Latn, label=none, Ватинска група, Vatinska grupa) is a name of a prehistoric Bronze Age culture, which was named after Vatin, a village in Serbia. The culture had Indo-European roots and was culturally connected with Mycenaean Greece. The Vatin culture is dated to the middle Bronze Age and is generally divided into three phases: Pančevo- Omoljica, Vatin- Vršac, and Belegiš- Ilandža. It flourished from c. 2000 BC to 1500 BC, or until the 13th century BC according to some sources. The people of the Vatin culture inhabited the entire territory of Vojvodina (Banat, Bačka, Syrmia) and many surrounding areas (including Slavonia, Oltenia, Bosnia and Central Serbia). Its core area was in Serbian- Vojvodinian Podunavlje. The remains of this culture were discovered at the beginning of the 20th century near the village of Vatin (Banat region, Vojvodina province, Serbia) ...

Vatin Circles
Vatin circles are an archaeological site near the village of Vatin near Vršac. It consists of four regular concentric circles that, going from larger to smaller, form a slight elevation. Size and purpose Vatin circles have a diameter of around 150 meters while the Vlajkovac circles around 300 meters. It is not known for sure how they were created or what their purpose was. It is assumed that they served as observatories for monitoring the movements of the sun and planets. On the winter solstice, December 21, was recorded from Vatin that the sun rises at the very foot of the mountains, on the extreme left, and that it symbolically climbs along the edge of the hill all the way to Gudurički vrh, the highest in Vojvodina. Seen from the Vlajkovac circles, which are located on the other side of the mountain, at an angle of 90 degrees, the sun also rises at the foot of the highest peak, which, viewed from that perspective, is the hill on which the Vršac Castle is located.

Vinča Culture
The Vinča culture , also known as Turdaș culture, Turdaș–Vinča culture or Vinča-Turdaș culture, is a Neolithic archaeological culture of Southeast Europe, dated to the period 5400–4500 BC. It is named for its type site, Vinča-Belo Brdo, a large tell settlement discovered by Serbian archaeologist Miloje Vasić in 1908. As with other cultures, it is mainly distinguished by its settlement pattern and ritual behaviour. It was particularly noted for its distinctive dark-burnished pottery. Farming technology first introduced to the region during the First Temperate Neolithic was developed further by the Vinča culture. This fuelled a population boom that produced some of the largest settlements in prehistoric Europe. These settlements maintained a high degree of cultural uniformity through the long-distance exchange of ritual items, but were probably not politically unified. Various styles of zoomorphic and anthropomorphic figurines were hallmarks of the culture, as ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
