The Belo Brdo (White Hill) archeological find is situated
only fourteen kilemeters downstream from fhe Sava inflow into the Danube.
According to the investigations started in 1905, and interrupted and again continued many times, the most impressive culture of the earlier Stone Age in Europe, which had its highlight in 5250 and 4250 of the Old Era, was discovered here.
Judging by the remains of mining furnaces, remains of ore, melting tools and vessels, it was concluded that Vinca was a mining settlement from the neolithic period in immediate connection with the cinnabar mines on the Avala Mountain. This mercury ore was very popular in the Old Era and was used for embalming and for cosmetic purposes, and probably was the reason of merchants from distant regions coming here.
This was concluded according to the similarity of the Vinca culture and the Aegean and Egyptian cultures.
Here, in the immediate vicinity of the Danube, exists a more than ten meters high cultural layer consisting of red, yellow, ash, brown and black deposits with the remains of burned huts, pits and graves, which prove that this place had witnessed thousands of years of disapearance of the old and birth of the new settlements.
