Lepenski Vir was initially a Mesolithic Hunter Gatherer site. Although they did begin mixing with Neolithic farmers, Vinca is not a continuation of it.
I have an interest in the Rhaetian or proto-Rhaetian peoples and early peoples of Tyrol area such as Otzi, who spoke a pre-Indo-European language, and wonder of a connection to the Terramare of the Po River and/or the Neolithic Farmers, the early farmers and any cultures they developed are my principal interest.
I don't think your theory of the Vincha culture is the first in Europe is correct as the people of serbia seems to behave like gypsies, tramps, thieves & warmongers.
seems the more primitive a society is, the more they prefer the rear to the front. losing our baculum which allowed for face-to-face mating may have been one of the most important leaps forward in our psychological/sociological evolution that said.....GYAAT
I found two Vinca figurines last year while fieldwalking in my area. One is a Y-shaped abstract anamorphic form, considered an amulet, it probably hung by a string in a house. The second is a much more realistic female figure made of blackened clay with her hands on her hips. Both are now at the local museum. I work with archaeologists here to make 3D reconstructions of cultural sites and objects and we're planning on reconstructing a Vinca village in the near future.
There are two Vinca sites near me - Medvednjak and Selevac in the Sumadija district, in Serbia. The Vinca figurines still can be found in the farming land. There is one more Vinca site little further called Viminacium. Serbia has many archeological sites of Vinca culture - the oldest European and maybe even the oldest world culture
They won't cause it would reshape Balkan history against their established revisionist history. The area is still contested, so they find no reason to research the truth.
@@Bionickpunk It would reshape the history in total. The vinca culture is a good proof that the ancient greeks “recieved” culture & civilization not only from egypt but from europe also.
@@Allyourheroswenttohell You can’t be more clueless lol. The oldest homo sapiens remains have been found in africa and they date back to 200.000 bc, yes. Also, history is not THAT simple bud. Much happened, especially in europe. I suggest you start researching a bit more.

Vinca is part of Belgrade - Serbia. Serbs, the oldest nation in Europe. Serbs have the oldest alphabet and the oldest calendar - 7533 years old. Serbia gave 18 Roman emperors, Emperor Constantine.

@@goranstojic5791while i love the hype i cant say i agree man...serbs settled in the balkans in 6th century. So while its an old nation its not quite as old as neighbouring Bulgaria...so that statement right off the bat would be false. Oldest calendar? Depends who the source is i cant really find this anywhere online other some battle in kosovo being documented as 6xxx year. Send me this please if you have proper proof. Only thing close to this claim and is recognized to some degree (by the scum that spin history always) was the one from vinkovci. Again the alphabet...where are you finding this information?
Hello Dan! Greetings from Sibiu (Romania)! Tărtăria-Gura Luncii, Alba county ( the infamous incised clay tablets, with symbols, were discovered here in 1961-the autumn campaign, by prof. Nicolae Vlassa-long story...), is indeed a complex prehistoric archaeological site (in recent studies there were identified elements of fortifications-ditches and palisade postholes-Luca 2016, „Tărtăria Rediviva”). Now, I'm studying for a master's degree at „Lucian Blaga” University of Sibiu (Department of History and Heritage Studies). The main subject of my Bachelor Thesis was about lithic industry (polished/ground and knapped stone tools) from Tărtăria. In 2021 and 2022 (summer campaigns), I have taken part in archaeological excavations here and I can assure all of you that, Vinča female clay figurines, are very THICC ;)!!! I'm pleased to see, that there is interest for the complex Neo-Eneolithic cultures in this part of Europe! Your high-quality documentaries contributed a lot to my passion for prehistory, so keep up the good work.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing! I'm wondering why are you calling these clay tablets ‘infamous.’ Did you simply misspoke, meaning ‘famous‘, or is there a story behind them, like their being a forgery or something along these lines? But Dan would have certainly mentioned if their authenticity were questioned... Just in case, ‘infamy’ is a bad kind of fame, when someone or something is well-known but for something bad. We can say ‘Famous violin player’ but 'infamous mass murderer’. English is weirdly inconsistent at times: for instance ‘inflammable’ and ‘flammable‘ mean the same thing, a quality of being easy to ignite, and the opposite is ‘non-flammable’. :)
@@xKinjaxWas nice to read this - we need more people from the recent generations going into such fields otherwise the future is doomed 💀😩 good look with your studies!
@@xKinjax the clay tablets were carbon dated in university of sorbonne so their authenticity is not disputed funny but some hungarians who live nearby still using some symbols when their writting
the world's earliest known form of writing is from a hungarian speaker village ... the7000years old Tatárlaka/Tartaria tablets ... and the local transilvanian hungarian use that letters/symbols at least 600years
why? serbians werent a thing until 9th century AD. Vinca have nothing to do with todays serbians. They could be related to greeks and albanians though that have been in the balkans for thousands of years.
@@montana3918I think you are forgetting that serbs and other slavs actually mixed with these ancient people, in fact south slavs have the least amount of slavic dna out of the three slavic groups.
@@montana3918 The guy literally just greeted from Serbia, who the heck even mentioned anything about relations with serbians? Read the comment and get your s*** together and stop spreading stupidity on the internet. Btw albanians mentioned from 11th centry and south slavs from 6-7th centruy when they migrated, how can albanians be related?
@@velicko.engineer cause he gives "proud" vibes by greeting from serbia as if serbs had anything to do with this ancient culture. They came thousands of years after the illyrians (albanians) and greeks into the balkans so yeah just clearifying that serbs came from the north and occupied balkan lands from the get go.
Glad to see more and more videos on the Neolithic Balkans. The Vinca and Varna cultures are fascinating and I still play the Varna video to my students sometimes! Greetings from Bulgaria.
Dude, there is no such thing as a region called "balcan". Read some history. The name was falsely claimed to be real by an english, failed too, wannabe writer of fiction in the 19th century. Get your head out of your own posterieur and learn some actual history.
20:26 The way those "idols" were arrayed on their platform, they definitely look like game pieces. 3 groups of six, 3 groups of 3, all with an equal amount of similarly shaped pieces per like-numbered group, and a single group with 8. Fascinating look and leaves a strong impression of a chess-like game.
@@phil2u48 - That was definitely my other thought. Only the matching numbers/groups of them made me wonder whether a game of some sort. Being hand-made, there may not have been a reason to have such matching groups if they were meant to be toys. Unless they were traded away to others in such groups, perhaps. Hmm.
The idea that they may have been game pieces is an intriguing one. Ancient people were no less intelligent than modern people and there's no reason they couldn't have developed a game like chess or backgammon. Because they were farmers, they needed some way to pass the time during the winter and a sophisticated game would have been just the ticket. Alas, we'll probably never know for certain what the figurines were used for.
I read a paper about the figures, thag speculates it was for strategising. Because the figures were really quickly and shoddily made in comparison to their level of technology, that they needed to lay down some strats in urgency :)
The fact that many of the Vinca inscriptions are similar to those found in Linear A of Crete should be taken into account before dismissing the possibility of representing writing. It's also worth noting that other writing forms, like cuneiform, started as pictograms for trade items as well.
At time when Vinča existed greeks didn't existed, so please keep your lies for yourself. Greeks exist maybe 2000 years b.c. while Vinča is at least twice older.
@@miloscarapic4502 What lies are you accusing me off, mate? You can look at the similarites between both scripts if you really are interested. Linguists have discussed the similarities too. Did it ever occur to you that new writing forms are build of older writing forms?

We in Serbia have older civilization then Vinca. It was Starcevo and Lepenski vir civilization then Vince civilization. Vinca civilization did not come from Anatolia. It is continued civilization from Lepenski vir and Starcevo
@@ranojutro426 That is correct. The civilisation began in Europe. In the area of present-day Serbia, Romania and Bulgaria. And the fact also no one wants to talk about is that these cultures were dominaed by R1b and R1a y-haplogroups, and U and H mt-haplogroups.

Balkans are such a fascinating place when you consider how many cultures thrived there. Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans, Slavs all left their mark. And among all those, we dig even deeper and find even more. Vinca is so cool, I wish we knew more Edit: Balkan people arguing in the comments are all living in Germany...

I think a video like this was really needed. I always see this culture get referenced but never anything focusing entirely on them. always glad to see one of your uploads
The Vinca culture is a group I have been fascinated with for a long time - in fact, it was learning about them which got me very interested in European pre-history, which lead to an interest in Indo-European studies. In one of my stories, I wrote a sorceress who was born in the Vinca culture, but survived to present day - she provides a good excuse to learn more about this fascinating people.

As always, well done. I enjoy your take as a writer combined with your extensive research, it allows for speculation and analysis that’s a bit more cutting than what a historian or archeologist can put out there. Thanks for some quality content.
@@matija92 It doesn't matter that you used Russia for assimilation of some Albanians and Wallachians in to Servians , you still speak Slavic and have Slavic Culture , nothing can connect you before 6-7 century to the Balkans .

@@PaioniaSoldier Romanians talk in roman language family, but are genetic brothers to Serbs. Language means nothing. And you Dr. Albans are very agressive, your J2 haplogroup is from recent times, it originated in the middle east.
Analbanians originate from kavkaz region, came to balkan in 12 century,nothing to do with vinca or other cultures,caucasian albania in Azerbaijan is their home land,they even resemble people from that region.
It's great to see another video on an ancient culture that don't usually get much attention. Great video. Their burning of their homes remind me of the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture. I wonder why so many prehistoric groups did that.
I imagine that it began with mold and pest control, but it becomes a strong psychological ritual, the destruction of the old and the construction of the new as an act of physical and spiritual renewal/death and rebirth of a community.
Yes, Vinca is continuing civilization from Lepenski vir civilization and Starcevo civilization. Vinca civilization did not come from Anatolia like he said
Arheološka nalazišta dobijaju ime po mestu na kom se nalaze . I po periodu u kojem su postojale . Starčevska kultura je starija od Vinčanske CIVILIZACIJE a Kukuteni- tripoljska mlađa , kao i Varna . Iako je to u stvari jedna te ista kultura samo su iz različitog vremena i drugih mesta . Za neku godinu opet će naći negde nešto i nazvaće ga po mestu gde ga budu našli . Inače vinča je biljka , tačnije cveće sa lepim cvetovima pa se gaji u vrtovima jer mu cvetovi opstaju sve do zime . Selo Vinča se nekad (pre 100-200 g.) zvalo Grablje , Grabulje ili tako nešto.
Very nice biopic of a people who seem to have thrived for a significant period of time. One can imagine people raising their families in these communities for thousands of years. Generations of grandparents parents and children come and gone.
Yeah thats crazy, and just like that they are erased from existence and history almost. They were living in a present times just like us today, with all their strugles pretty much irrelevant now. Thousands years from now same fate might happen to us, none of the current nations and nationalities and ethnicities won't exist in the future. Everything we do now will be erased in some future
This Sunday, I visited the National Historic Museum in Sofia, and I saw very similar artifacts from 6000+ BC but probably from another culture because they were found along the coast of the Black Sea (near Durankulak, Dobrich province). It was fascinating. There was gold jewelry too, probably some of the oldest ever. Visiting this museum is a must if you're in the area of Sofia.

Thats because Serbs use to live there too. All the neighboring countries of today are a modern day creations on ancient Serbian lands that mostly were made thanks to Vatican parasites killing Serbs and brainwashing their children. It has been done since Vatican exist. If you look at every European country or "nation" they all have Serbian roots from culture to words but they all don't know where it comes from, while Serbs do use these and used them before any of these existed.

Fascinating video on a culture I knew nothing about. Interesting interpretation of the mace being a symbol of authority, from the buwava of a hetman or ataman to the mace in the House of Commons in the UK.
I love these ancient culture videos; you really being them to life. I love that you speculate on what things like these figures mean (could this be for planning strategy, or the roles of different war bands before a raid?) I think your talent as a writer gives you a unique advantage in helping imagine how things were for our ancestors.
We in Serbia have older civilization which is Starcevo, Lepenski vir then Vinca civilization. Vinca civilization did not come from Anatolia like he said it is continued civilization from Starcevo and Lepenski vir
I actually live in Belgrade and pretty near Vinča! Honestly just seeing how long my country has been populated is just… woah. like, the ground I walk on every day is the same one that the ottomans, the Slavs, the Austro Hungarians, the romans, and even the ancient people walked as well. I’d say Serbia is a very historical place that I don’t see many foreigners talk about(and hell, I feel like even the people here forget just how long and how consistently people have lived here) and if you ever visit Belgrade you’ll see how the architecture feels like almost a patchwork of different times and styles.
Me too! As a matter of fact I think ancient peoples looked anything but naturalistic. From the time immemorial people used a lot of make up jewells ornaments masks etc. It tells a lot about our human nature❤.
Im from a town in Bosnia called Zvornik, an area which seems to have been part of this cultural space. Zvornik lays at the place where the river Drina leaves its karst gorge and enters its alluvial plane. In the gorges above Zvornik is a well known ancient mine town of Srebrenica. Nothing is by accident, there is a reason why this settlement came to existence at that particular place.
The funny thing is the eastern european scientists talked about this culture since 50 years but in the west everybody said this is just fake, no culture in the east europe or the balkans.
Because Americans and Western Europeans don't even want to acknowledge our existence. All cultural conversations avoid the region like a plague. Even African cultures get more recognition these days. "South and Eastern Europe are just places where wars take place" is the common sentiment unfortunately.
Turovic Needle from 14 B.C. found near Serbian city of Leskovac is the purest iron object ever made. The most advanced tech of today cannot reach such a purity. There were dozens of such things created by Vinca and their descents including highly advanced science.
I am enchanted by that group of presumably warrior statue. In the simple bell shape you can see how human hands have rolled and squeezed the clay. It's a bit like the hand shadows outlined with ochre, but now I can dicern pressure, movement and more precision
There is a ritual to this day in some parts of Serbia called "poklade" where they wear masks. Also the Palisades were only located around copper mines and some other more important locations , not whole town's . Also I have no idea where you found evidence for violence even less for organized violence . There is absolutely no evidence there were wars .
The notion that early metalworkers might have exercised (or been constrained by) ritual power brings to mind what I’ve been told of the etymology of the name Cain-among other possible meanings, it referred to the forge. The forge gave the power to kill one’s brother, but God forbids anyone from taking the life (by placing a visible mark?) of the one who works the forge. The sense of terrible, but necessary and protected, power may have been appreciated in different ways in more than one ancient culture.

The first 10 seconds of the video are not exactly as you say, sir, about migrations from M.

Vinca and Starcevo are part of Belgrade - Serbia. Lepenski Vir is in Serbia. Serbs are the oldest nation in Europe. Serbs have the oldest script in the world. Serbs they have the oldest calendar in the world - 7533 years old. Serbia gave 18 Roman emperors, Emperor Constantine. Nikola Tesla. The Serbs gave the most to the development of the world. Now it is Serbia is an occupied country.
@vladimirkrstov, That’s a lot of anachronism you’re engaging in. Not a single one of those Roman emperors were Serbs, as no such thing as a Serb or Serbia existed then. They were Roman.
Ermagerd a new video!¡! Also, I wonder if those clay figurines could've been kids' toys? Something like modern-day toy soldiers. Maybe even made by the child.
Actually I should have included this in the video but there are figurines that were obviously made at least partly by children. There's a couple of little toy cows still with fingerprints in. They can tell that adults or older children made most of the clay figure and then a child finished off the shape by pinching the clay together. So it seems clear that some figures were children's toys. They also made tiny versions of household objects in clay - little tables, tiny pots and bowls. They look like toy kitchens!
@@aaronfleisher4694important to note that in anthropology, a "ritual" is pretty much any social activity that is done repeatedly, no matter how serious or significant. Shaking hands is a ritual, children's toys are ritual objects. It's an important clarification, because when most people hear "ritual" they default to religion, and it really doesn't have to be related
That's what I thought too. There were probably an abundance of those made to entertain kids. Many had little holes in them. Maybe they were stringing them and hanging them somewhere or wearing them, not sure. Was it for babies to play with, pets? Reminds me of the popular playdough. I wish they can solve this mystery!
In the two world wars in 1914 and 1941, the Germans bombed the national library and museum of Serbia in Belgrade both times. When you see in this video what kind of our history they wanted to destroy, it is clear to you why Serbs were killed in wars and camps, and Kosovo and Metohija were taken from us and finally bombed in 1999 by NATO, and the crimes of the Albanians (who are the last the enemy's weapon of destruction of the history of the Serbian people) continue to this day. Best regards! 🇷🇸🍀
At 18:45, The first thing I thought of was "1000pt Warhammer Army". If cube dice were discovered in the vicinity of the figures, we'd know for sure. heh. But I'd not be surprised if they were figures for a wargame or actual tools for representing troops in war planning or as part of storytelling like puppets.
Glad to see more videos on teh topic of Vinca culture, especially in English as world doesn't really talk enough about this fantastic culture, while in Serbia and Romanai there is no enough funding to discover more. I am very much fascinated with so called "Vinca symbols" for which some believe its the first world's writing. But there is much debate about it still whether those are just decorations or writings.
I’m a total geek for early metallurgy, so when I see the clay disc with markings, my first thought is, of course, a metallurgical recipe. If humans ever developed a time machine, I’d want to use it to go back and observe this period of humanity. For me, the several thousand years of pre-pottery Neolithic and chalcolithic is the sweet spot. (5000+ years is an unfortunately big sweet spot!)
i did some hobby metalwork inspired by history,i love looking at base principles (starting from scratch and learning from there,and evolving with knowledge of what is right and wrong and why) what video/series would you recommend for someone to have a good foundation in metallurgy?
I picked up The Living Goddesses by Marija Gimbutas. It's a great read and it offers an in depth exploration of, what she calls "old Europe". She discisses cultures like the Vinča or Cucuteni Trypillia culture. They are absolutely fascinating and I've always wondered what people from this remote period were like
6:30 the rectangle reminds me of what was found in america when building the railroad. The tracks always seem to be going past these. A lot of stone left under the ground. It is unknown what they are about.
Although Vinca is not the same tier of civilisation the likes of which we will witness 2000 years later in Mesopotamia, they certainly are a distinct culture with traces of proto-civilisationary traits. They are an important corner stone in the theory of how civilisations came to be since the usual school of thought teaches us that there was nothing in europe prior to the old civilisations.
If you dig deep into the archive, you will realize that from Crete to Kiev, and from Zagreb to Burgas, there lived people speaking the same language, with the same customs and gods, before the Greeks arrived.

Greek alphabet is a spinoff of Serb / Vinča alphabet. Greeks are a mixture of natives (Serbs), North Africans and Levantines. Ancient Greek writes like Plato make it quite clear that they are not the native. Plato himself says they have taken the native language and twisted it to such a measure that they don’t even know what the words mean / how they came to be / their etymology. He uses “Zogon” (a cart that is pulled by two oxen), as an example and says he has no idea what the etymology is. Serbs still use that word today. It’s called “Dvogon”. Dvo (two) gon (verb: “goniti”, meaning to chase; to push; move away). Egyptians that came to Europe (that mixed in and became ancient Greeks) brought their papyrus technology with them and wrote down all of our epic poetry and traditions etc....that are sung along the “Gusle” instrument.

We are in the year of 7532. The old Serbian calendar stands as one of the oldest in the world. Unlike many modern calendars with four seasons, the old Serbian calendar simplifies time into two: summer and winter. Its divisions are based on the sun's influence on the north and south hemispheres. The knowledge of these solar effects on hemispheres, though mysterious, was recognized by the people in the past who celebrated the new year during the transition from winter to summer. This contrasts with the Gregorian calendar, which places the new year in the midst of winter, seemingly illogical from the calendars perspective. Serbia holds a unique distinction as one of the few nations with a symbol for time and the calendar, known as the GALACTIC BOW. This symbol, a curve intersected by two lines representing the shifts from winter to summer and vice versa, holds cultural significance, the GALACTIC BOW, alongside the Serbian cross and twenty Vinča script letters, has roots dating back to the Vinča civilization. This ancient European civilization flourished between 5500-4500 BCE, tying the Serbian calendar to the beginning of the Vinča civization. In essence, the old Serbian calendar carries the weight of centuries, blending history, tradition, and a deep understanding of celestial phenomena into a unique chronicle of time.

The Calendar is a document that shows the year when people in the past reached the level of civilization and was able to write a calendar. Writing a calendar requires a high level of civilization of science and culture. The Serbian calendar is the oldest cultural, scientific and historical monument of the Serbian people, which is based on the immateriality of nature. Serbs have in addition to the existing substantive criteria introduced into their calendar the term of intangible criteria of time. Intangible Number Three It is known that the Serbs as a sign of recognition are raising three fingers. Serbs toast three times, kisses three times, they are baptizing with three fingers, etc. The Serbian nation is the only nation in the world today that has the symbol of three fingers. To understand these folk traditions that are passed from generation to generation, we should turn to the sun. The latest electromagnetic surveys have shown that the cosmic rule of number three is applied for the sun. When at the visible side of the sun occurs the volcano, the volcano always occurs three times, and the direction of magnetic fields on the sun changes after three rotations of the sun; every stroke of the solar wind with greater density causes rocking of the magnetic cross in the northern hemisphere three times, etc. In simple words, everything that happens on the sun and cosmic space, it happens three times. Serbs were aware of the existence of immaterial cosmic rule number three, so they took the number three to be their national symbol. Three fingers are a symbol of nature immateriality and spirituality of the Serbian people, and part of its cultural heritage. This is the spirituality of a nation who can understand and explain the immaterial nature. This leads to the conclusion that the Serbs, in addition to the existing substantive criteria, introduced into their calendar the term of intangible criteria of time. Time among the Serbs was built into the immaterial nature, so that material criteria cannot be the criteria of time. In other words, with the material astronomical standards an accurate calendar cannot be made. Time for Serbs is a measure of immateriality of nature and not related to space and movement. Simply there is no connection between time and physical world, or space, so that the concept of the relativity of time is just fiction of the human being obtained with the help of mathematical combinatorics. Every nation has its own symbol of time. At the Egyptians and the majority of the people of the European civilization space, the symbol of time was the solar or the lunar cycle. All these nations believe in the cyclicality of time based on astronomical standards, or circle as a symbol for time. However, the two nations who did not have a circle as a symbol of time are the Serbian and the Jewish people. At the Jews the symbol of time was a skewed straight line which is directed towards the sky. At the Serbs it is a sloping arc with two cross-sections, which is also directed towards the sky. A straight line and hair arc with two cross-sections of both nations have the same meaning. This is the Galactic arc on which the sun moves during one calendar year, around the center of the Galaxy. The sun needs 220 million years to make one circle, and from the galactic formation of the Milky Way until now, the sun has made 20 laps. Seven millennia of Serbian Calendar The oldest written records show that the Serbs started to count the time from 5508 BC. The Serbian calendar was until the 19th century, the official calendar of the Serbian state and the Serbian Orthodox Church. All administrative acts of the Serbian state were dated after the Serbian calendar. Based on the old records we learn that the Serbs had a calendar, where the calendar year began in April and it was divided into two seasons, summer and winter where winter begins on the Day of Saint Mitar or in early November. The year was divided into 13 months (herbal calendar) which approximately was the number of rotations of the sun during a calendar year. After receiving Christianity and influenced by the economic environment, the Serbs created a calendar of 12 months. However, in the 12th century the Saint Sava took the names of the month from the Roman calendar and brought them into the Serbian calendar (Rule of Law), which can be considered as a spiritual contribution to the Saint Sava communion of all Christians. Serbian people still respect the decision of the Saint Sava. The oldest original document, which is dated by the Serbian calendar, is the Karyes Typikon of Saint Sava. The youngest document found in 2010 was the Cross of Vujan of the Patriarch Pavle in the monastery Vujan of the Serbian Orthodox Church. Both documents are dated by the symbol for the time that is unique in the calendar world, which comes from the Vinca culture. The Serbian Orthodox Church has a large number of churches and monasteries that were Serbian universities: Hilandar, The Patriarchate of Peć, Dečani, Studenica, Žiča, Gračanica, Sopoćani, Virgo, Milečeva, Ravanica, Ljubostinja, Ćelije, Tronoša, Ostrog, Cetinje Monastery, Vujan, Hopovo , Krušedol, Vraćevšnica, Manasija, Djurdjevi Stupovi, Lepavina, Krka, Krupa, Dragović, Banjska, Piva, Savina, Soko, Gornjak, Vitovnica, Radovašnica, Tavna, Moštanica, Dobrun and others. Serbian churches and Serbian universities gave the highest level of literary and artistic education. Literacy and artistic treatment of Serbian manuscripts and government documents have been created for thousands of years. When we compare the protocol used in computer data processing and protocol at Serbian calendar we see that the protocols are the same. In both protocols, first has been written the year, then the month and at the end the day. Thus we come to the magnificent scientific knowledge that modern computer data processing is performed under the protocol of the Serbian calendar. Geopotential Geopotential is the atmospheric pressure at a certain height or the area on which the pressure is 10 milliards. When atmospheric pressure has been measured (geopotential) at 10 milliards we can see that it changes depending on the energy coming from the sun. If the atmospheric pressure of 10 milliards is measured at the poles we see that the height of ten milliards surface has been changed. When through the magnetic door penetrate protons, the height of ten milliards surface will be reduced, but when the electrons penetrate, the height of ten milliards surface increases. In the summer, the dominant energy is electronic, and in winter, protonic. When the surfaces of ten milliards on the northern and southern hemispheres equalize, then they show equal energy on the northern and southern hemispheres.
Vinchan alphabet has al letters from Etruscan language, but even more and predates etruscan culture, it's confirmed by Profesor Radivoj Peshich published in Italy, and accepted by scientific comunity.
@@frostflower5555because the Egyptian were the most advanced culture at the time they traded with Egypt and learned from them. Also from Greeks of course but people always ignore Egypt. Of course looking at the statues it’s obvious they were learning more from Egypt than from Greece.
Maybe the Etruscan came from the Vinca people. And weren't etruscan quite different from the latin people and all other people that lived in what is today Italy?
I started watching the video, watched the first part of the Introduction, went to bathroom and forgot to pause the video, then I came back from "Over 8000 years ago the first farm of Europe... with "Tanks, Planes and Helicopters..." and I was like "Oh, these were very advanced farmers"
I had not heard of the Vinc^a culture! Interesting they were Mediterranean originally. And such large settlement. Unusual so early. There is so much we don't know from these early periods like grabbing smoke! But historians & archeologists have done an amazing job recreating these people & their lifestyle.
The things I am most curious about regarding human history is the development of metallurgy and cotton and linen fabric. Most material advancements I can envision a path to, these innovations are perplexing to me.

Thank you for watching. Let me know what you want to see next.
Lepenski Vir was initially a Mesolithic Hunter Gatherer site. Although they did begin mixing with Neolithic farmers, Vinca is not a continuation of it.
I have an interest in the Rhaetian or proto-Rhaetian peoples and early peoples of Tyrol area such as Otzi, who spoke a pre-Indo-European language, and wonder of a connection to the Terramare of the Po River and/or the Neolithic Farmers, the early farmers and any cultures they developed are my principal interest.
Another masterpiece. Thank you. I'd like a narrative on the origins of the Etruscans, and their wars with Carthage.
I don't think your theory of the Vincha culture is the first in Europe is correct as the people of serbia seems to behave like gypsies, tramps, thieves & warmongers.

I found two Vinca figurines last year while fieldwalking in my area. One is a Y-shaped abstract anamorphic form, considered an amulet, it probably hung by a string in a house. The second is a much more realistic female figure made of blackened clay with her hands on her hips. Both are now at the local museum. I work with archaeologists here to make 3D reconstructions of cultural sites and objects and we're planning on reconstructing a Vinca village in the near future.
Fascinating story. Thank you for your input.

There are two Vinca sites near me - Medvednjak and Selevac in the Sumadija district, in Serbia. The Vinca figurines still can be found in the farming land. There is one more Vinca site little further called Viminacium. Serbia has many archeological sites of Vinca culture - the oldest European and maybe even the oldest world culture

Lepenski Vir is much older than Vincha. It was ancient - 5 500 years ancient - when Vincha culture appeared.
A civilization older than Mesopotamia and Egypt itself. Historians and Scientist need to focus more on this one.

Hello Dan! Greetings from Sibiu (Romania)! Tărtăria-Gura Luncii, Alba county ( the infamous incised clay tablets, with symbols, were discovered here in 1961-the autumn campaign, by prof. Nicolae Vlassa-long story...), is indeed a complex prehistoric archaeological site (in recent studies there were identified elements of fortifications-ditches and palisade postholes-Luca 2016, „Tărtăria Rediviva”). Now, I'm studying for a master's degree at „Lucian Blaga” University of Sibiu (Department of History and Heritage Studies). The main subject of my Bachelor Thesis was about lithic industry (polished/ground and knapped stone tools) from Tărtăria. In 2021 and 2022 (summer campaigns), I have taken part in archaeological excavations here and I can assure all of you that, Vinča female clay figurines, are very THICC ;)!!!
I'm pleased to see, that there is interest for the complex Neo-Eneolithic cultures in this part of Europe! Your high-quality documentaries contributed a lot to my passion for prehistory, so keep up the good work.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing! I'm wondering why are you calling these clay tablets ‘infamous.’ Did you simply misspoke, meaning ‘famous‘, or is there a story behind them, like their being a forgery or something along these lines? But Dan would have certainly mentioned if their authenticity were questioned... Just in case, ‘infamy’ is a bad kind of fame, when someone or something is well-known but for something bad. We can say ‘Famous violin player’ but 'infamous mass murderer’.
English is weirdly inconsistent at times: for instance ‘inflammable’ and ‘flammable‘ mean the same thing, a quality of being easy to ignite, and the opposite is ‘non-flammable’. :)
@@cykkmhe did say 14 minutes in that both the meaning of the tablets and their authenticity is disputed.
@@xKinjaxWas nice to read this - we need more people from the recent generations going into such fields otherwise the future is doomed 💀😩 good look with your studies!
@@xKinjax the clay tablets were carbon dated in university of sorbonne so their authenticity is not disputed funny but some hungarians who live nearby still using some symbols when their writting
the world's earliest known form of writing is from a hungarian speaker village ... the7000years old Tatárlaka/Tartaria tablets ...
and the local transilvanian hungarian use that letters/symbols at least 600years

I completely agree with you.
Dude, there is no such thing as a region called "balcan". Read some history. The name was falsely claimed to be real by an english, failed too, wannabe writer of fiction in the 19th century.
Get your head out of your own posterieur and learn some actual history.
20:26 The way those "idols" were arrayed on their platform, they definitely look like game pieces. 3 groups of six, 3 groups of 3, all with an equal amount of similarly shaped pieces per like-numbered group, and a single group with 8. Fascinating look and leaves a strong impression of a chess-like game.
I immediately thought of “toy” soldiers. Growing up, I spent hours with my cousins playing “army”.
@@phil2u48 - That was definitely my other thought. Only the matching numbers/groups of them made me wonder whether a game of some sort. Being hand-made, there may not have been a reason to have such matching groups if they were meant to be toys. Unless they were traded away to others in such groups, perhaps. Hmm.
@@NefariousKoel won't be surprising (looking at warhammer 40k units price)
The idea that they may have been game pieces is an intriguing one. Ancient people were no less intelligent than modern people and there's no reason they couldn't have developed a game like chess or backgammon. Because they were farmers, they needed some way to pass the time during the winter and a sophisticated game would have been just the ticket. Alas, we'll probably never know for certain what the figurines were used for.
I read a paper about the figures, thag speculates it was for strategising. Because the figures were really quickly and shoddily made in comparison to their level of technology, that they needed to lay down some strats in urgency :)
The fact that many of the Vinca inscriptions are similar to those found in Linear A of Crete should be taken into account before dismissing the possibility of representing writing. It's also worth noting that other writing forms, like cuneiform, started as pictograms for trade items as well.
Yeah, but IF they were modern artifacts misrepresented as historical, the guy who made them ALSO knew of the Liner A inscriptions.
They are 2000 years older than the Cretan ones
@@АнтонПавлов-ц4з That's why they are so significant.

We in Serbia have older civilization which is Starcevo, Lepenski vir then Vinca civilization.
Vinca civilization did not come from Anatolia like he said it is continued civilization from Starcevo and Lepenski vir
Great stuff, my man!
Thank you!
Thank you Dan! It was very interesting to follow. Yet, there's so much more to explore and present about this culture.
Thank you for following up on the Vinca culture!
I actually live in Belgrade and pretty near Vinča! Honestly just seeing how long my country has been populated is just… woah. like, the ground I walk on every day is the same one that the ottomans, the Slavs, the Austro Hungarians, the romans, and even the ancient people walked as well. I’d say Serbia is a very historical place that I don’t see many foreigners talk about(and hell, I feel like even the people here forget just how long and how consistently people have lived here) and if you ever visit Belgrade you’ll see how the architecture feels like almost a patchwork of different times and styles.
Yet another fascinating video
Keep them coming man, great job as always
Didn't realise that the statuets represented masked individuals. Fascinating.
That's just a theory.
A Vinca theory!
Proof that masks work. TAKE YOUR Vaccines!
Me too! As a matter of fact I think ancient peoples looked anything but naturalistic. From the time immemorial people used a lot of make up jewells ornaments masks etc. It tells a lot about our human nature❤.
Thanks for doing what you do. I just love things like this. Keep them coming!
Im from a town in Bosnia called Zvornik, an area which seems to have been part of this cultural space. Zvornik lays at the place where the river Drina leaves its karst gorge and enters its alluvial plane. In the gorges above Zvornik is a well known ancient mine town of Srebrenica. Nothing is by accident, there is a reason why this settlement came to existence at that particular place.
As always Dan,nothing short of an absolute gem of a production ❤ 👌 Thank you!
The funny thing is the eastern european scientists talked about this culture since 50 years but in the west everybody said this is just fake, no culture in the east europe or the balkans.
Because Americans and Western Europeans don't even want to acknowledge our existence. All cultural conversations avoid the region like a plague. Even African cultures get more recognition these days. "South and Eastern Europe are just places where wars take place" is the common sentiment unfortunately.
Yip...and now they tell us that ALL of us were black African
Over the years, archaeologists have had to rewrite the narrative. Some refused to recognize the lidar findings in Honduras. How wrong they were!
Loved it! Thanks a bunch for sharing this with us Danny Boy!
Your videos are fantastic! I can't get enough of them!
As serbian, I am glad this is also part of my ancestry and that you are making such an informative video about it
your ancestry is not in the balkans try ukraine or russia for a better connection haha
@@ILLYRIANW0LFYou both are idiots.
Turovic Needle from 14 B.C. found near Serbian city of Leskovac is the purest iron object ever made. The most advanced tech of today cannot reach such a purity. There were dozens of such things created by Vinca and their descents including highly advanced science.
Thanks for your great Vinča video. How interisting.
I am enchanted by that group of presumably warrior statue. In the simple bell shape you can see how human hands have rolled and squeezed the clay. It's a bit like the hand shadows outlined with ochre, but now I can dicern pressure, movement and more precision
Greetings from Serbia!!👏👏👏
wow they were so advanced for their time. It's crazy to think this was seven thousand years ago
Another masterpiece. Thank you.
There is a ritual to this day in some parts of Serbia called "poklade" where they wear masks.
Also the Palisades were only located around copper mines and some other more important locations , not whole town's .
Also I have no idea where you found evidence for violence even less for organized violence .
There is absolutely no evidence there were wars .
Great stuff, as always, Dan. Those "chess men" really are fascinating. I need a timeline with all the civilizations on it to see how they all relate.
The notion that early metalworkers might have exercised (or been constrained by) ritual power brings to mind what I’ve been told of the etymology of the name Cain-among other possible meanings, it referred to the forge. The forge gave the power to kill one’s brother, but God forbids anyone from taking the life (by placing a visible mark?) of the one who works the forge. The sense of terrible, but necessary and protected, power may have been appreciated in different ways in more than one ancient culture.
Vinca, Lepenski Vir, Starcevo - Serbia - the origin of European culture.
Serbs are the oldest nation of Europe, the first alphabet - the oldest calendar in the world - 7533. year. Serbia had access to 3 seas, now it has no access to the sea.
From Serbia and the Serbs, somewhat of a country and a nation emerged - now they are the biggest enemies of the Serbs.

15:33 Some of the letters look Slavic like this one Ђ and Ч on the top left side and the letter ш that is next to the Ч letter
Yes Serbian people still write and use those letters. It was Vinca letters now we call it cirilica
Ђ is not a Slavic letter it is hallmark of Serbian letters
@@ranojutro426ćirilica is a misnomer. It indicates Serbian inability to develop the writing system themselves and negates clear continuity with Vinča
@@LeksoSai "Slavic" was another word for Serbian people, it was made up just like many others to confuse future generations. Slavs = Serbs
Slav = Pravoslav Pravoslavlje (Orthodox Christian-ity), Slava = Celebration, Slaviti = to celebrate, Slovo = letter, Sloviti = to know how to write and to read ... etc
All Serbian roots of words dating back to ancient times and still used today.
Dear is also a Slavic simbol, swastika too.
The first 10 seconds of the video are not exactly as you say, sir, about migrations from M. East, because the new researchees of HAPLO GROUPS of the domicial people in Serbia and former Yugoslavia today, (I2a, R1b), are the same with HAPLO GROUPS of arheolohical human bones samples from the period of Vincha, Starchevo. It means that there was not any big migration from M. East to a Balkans. If we take a look also, at the HAPLO GROUPS maps of M. East, or Greece, the answer is more clear. I congratulate you, sir, for the rest of your god job on this video, it means a lot for me, for my people, and, I hope, for the real History Sciense.

Vinca and Starcevo are part of Belgrade - Serbia. Lepenski Vir is in Serbia.
Serbs are the oldest nation in Europe.
Serbs have the oldest script in the world. Serbs
they have the oldest calendar in the world - 7533 years old.
Serbia gave 18 Roman emperors, Emperor Constantine. Nikola Tesla. The Serbs gave the most to the development of the world. Now it is
Serbia is an occupied country.
Hahahahaha didnt Slavic tribes come to Balkans for appr 1000 years? Gtfoh
@vladimirkrstov, That’s a lot of anachronism you’re engaging in. Not a single one of those Roman emperors were Serbs, as no such thing as a Serb or Serbia existed then. They were Roman.
Yes he did not say that before Vinca Serbia has Starcevo, Lepenski vir civilization.
Thank you for all these wonderful videos!
I have been there as a kid, part of a school trip. It was hella cool to see everything they dig up and preserved as well!
Ermagerd a new video!¡!
Also, I wonder if those clay figurines could've been kids' toys? Something like modern-day toy soldiers. Maybe even made by the child.
Actually I should have included this in the video but there are figurines that were obviously made at least partly by children. There's a couple of little toy cows still with fingerprints in. They can tell that adults or older children made most of the clay figure and then a child finished off the shape by pinching the clay together. So it seems clear that some figures were children's toys.
They also made tiny versions of household objects in clay - little tables, tiny pots and bowls. They look like toy kitchens!
@@aaronfleisher4694important to note that in anthropology, a "ritual" is pretty much any social activity that is done repeatedly, no matter how serious or significant. Shaking hands is a ritual, children's toys are ritual objects. It's an important clarification, because when most people hear "ritual" they default to religion, and it really doesn't have to be related
That's what I thought too. There were probably an abundance of those made to entertain kids. Many had little holes in them. Maybe they were stringing them and hanging them somewhere or wearing them, not sure. Was it for babies to play with, pets? Reminds me of the popular playdough. I wish they can solve this mystery!
@@DanDavisHistoryomg that is so precious!
Beautiful video, such a fascinating people, let's hope we learn much more about them 👍
Many thanks.
In the two world wars in 1914 and 1941, the Germans bombed the national library and museum of Serbia in Belgrade both times. When you see in this video what kind of our history they wanted to destroy, it is clear to you why Serbs were killed in wars and camps, and Kosovo and Metohija were taken from us and finally bombed in 1999 by NATO, and the crimes of the Albanians (who are the last the enemy's weapon of destruction of the history of the Serbian people) continue to this day.
Best regards! 🇷🇸🍀

THE END.
Sir vinca is in my country and it is at a bank of danube river ; nobody say they lived in hills ; it is a fishing spot kind of .
At 18:45, The first thing I thought of was "1000pt Warhammer Army". If cube dice were discovered in the vicinity of the figures, we'd know for sure. heh. But I'd not be surprised if they were figures for a wargame or actual tools for representing troops in war planning or as part of storytelling like puppets.
A fascinatin topic in a clear and accesible explanation. Great video.
Fascinating! Thank you for this
Glad to see more videos on teh topic of Vinca culture, especially in English as world doesn't really talk enough about this fantastic culture, while in Serbia and Romanai there is no enough funding to discover more. I am very much fascinated with so called "Vinca symbols" for which some believe its the first world's writing. But there is much debate about it still whether those are just decorations or writings.
In Vinca culture, everything is inspired by the number 3. Serbs still have the number 3 rooted in their culture.
I’m a total geek for early metallurgy, so when I see the clay disc with markings, my first thought is, of course, a metallurgical recipe.
If humans ever developed a time machine, I’d want to use it to go back and observe this period of humanity. For me, the several thousand years of pre-pottery Neolithic and chalcolithic is the sweet spot. (5000+ years is an unfortunately big sweet spot!)
i did some hobby metalwork inspired by history,i love looking at base principles (starting from scratch and learning from there,and evolving with knowledge of what is right and wrong and why) what video/series would you recommend for someone to have a good foundation in metallurgy?
all this mainstream history is fake
Take a look at the following: De Re Metallica by Agricola and L'Encyclopedie by Denis Diderot. You will not be disappointed.

6:30 the rectangle reminds me of what was found in america when building the railroad. The tracks always seem to be going past these. A lot of stone left under the ground. It is unknown what they are about.
Although Vinca is not the same tier of civilisation the likes of which we will witness 2000 years later in Mesopotamia, they certainly are a distinct culture with traces of proto-civilisationary traits.
They are an important corner stone in the theory of how civilisations came to be since the usual school of thought teaches us that there was nothing in europe prior to the old civilisations.
some of the ceramic figurines are so reminiscent of jomon dogu from japan
If you dig deep into the archive, you will realize that from Crete to Kiev, and from Zagreb to Burgas, there lived people speaking the same language, with the same customs and gods, before the Greeks arrived.

There needs to be an examination of the emergence of agricultural societies, and their impact on the early herding societies. It is no secret both have been at odds with each other, and a study of how they may have come to their initial agreements.
Vinca, Lepenski Vir, Starcevo - Serbia - the origin of European culture.
Serbs are the oldest nation of Europe, the first alphabet - the oldest calendar in the world - 7533. year. Serbia had access to 3 seas, now it has no access to the sea.
From Serbia and the Serbs, somewhat of a country and a nation emerged - now they are the biggest enemies of the Serbs.
@@milicgordana7935 Ummm, second oldest alphabet. The Cyrillic alphabet borrowed many letters from the Greeks. The letter "F" for example.
Greek alphabet is a spinoff of Serb / Vinča alphabet.
Greeks are a mixture of natives (Serbs), North Africans and Levantines.
Ancient Greek writes like Plato make it quite clear that they are not the native. Plato himself says they have taken the native language and twisted it to such a measure that they don’t even know what the words mean / how they came to be / their etymology.
He uses “Zogon” (a cart that is pulled by two oxen), as an example and says he has no idea what the etymology is.
Serbs still use that word today. It’s called “Dvogon”.
Dvo (two) gon (verb: “goniti”, meaning to chase; to push; move away).
Egyptians that came to Europe (that mixed in and became ancient Greeks) brought their papyrus technology with them and wrote down all of our epic poetry and traditions etc....that are sung along the “Gusle” instrument.
I have been waiting for this. Cucuteni-Tripolie next please:)

We are in the year of 7532. The old Serbian calendar stands as one of the oldest in the world. Unlike many modern calendars with four seasons, the old Serbian calendar simplifies time into two: summer and winter. Its divisions are based on the sun's influence on the north and south hemispheres. The knowledge of these solar effects on hemispheres, though mysterious, was recognized by the people in the past who celebrated the new year during the transition from winter to summer. This contrasts with the Gregorian calendar, which places the new year in the midst of winter, seemingly illogical from the calendars perspective. Serbia holds a unique distinction as one of the few nations with a symbol for time and the calendar, known as the GALACTIC BOW. This symbol, a curve intersected by two lines representing the shifts from winter to summer and vice versa, holds cultural significance, the GALACTIC BOW, alongside the Serbian cross and twenty Vinča script letters, has roots dating back to the Vinča civilization. This ancient European civilization flourished between 5500-4500 BCE, tying the Serbian calendar to the beginning of the Vinča civization. In essence, the old Serbian calendar carries the weight of centuries, blending history, tradition, and a deep understanding of celestial phenomena into a unique chronicle of time.
Thats bizantrine calendar which was used in Serbia coutning year from supposed creation of earth.
@@himpim642 👈 Try again. The calendar is called the "GALACTIC BOW". Go and educate yourself on it.
@@peekaboo12
Year that you mentioned we are supposedly in oviously is from bizantine calendar which was used in most coutnries whcih were under bizantine influnce including Serbia.Heck if you type bizantine calendar on wiki it mentions it was used in Serbia where it was called Serbian calendar.
Galactic bow yieled search no article on internet wheter usual search nor ghoogle scholar only one youtube video whcih verbatim says what you are talkign witoutany sources hence no value..
The Calendar is a document that shows the year when people in the past reached the level of civilization and was able to write a calendar. Writing a calendar requires a high level of civilization of science and culture. The Serbian calendar is the oldest cultural, scientific and historical monument of the Serbian people, which is based on the immateriality of nature. Serbs have in addition to the existing substantive criteria introduced into their calendar the term of intangible criteria of time.
Intangible Number Three
It is known that the Serbs as a sign of recognition are raising three fingers. Serbs toast three times, kisses three times, they are baptizing with three fingers, etc. The Serbian nation is the only nation in the world today that has the symbol of three fingers. To understand these folk traditions that are passed from generation to generation, we should turn to the sun. The latest electromagnetic surveys have shown that the cosmic rule of number three is applied for the sun.
When at the visible side of the sun occurs the volcano, the volcano always occurs three times, and the direction of magnetic fields on the sun changes after three rotations of the sun; every stroke of the solar wind with greater density causes rocking of the magnetic cross in the northern hemisphere three times, etc. In simple words, everything that happens on the sun and cosmic space, it happens three times. Serbs were aware of the existence of immaterial cosmic rule number three, so they took the number three to be their national symbol.
Three fingers are a symbol of nature immateriality and spirituality of the Serbian people, and part of its cultural heritage. This is the spirituality of a nation who can understand and explain the immaterial nature.
This leads to the conclusion that the Serbs, in addition to the existing substantive criteria, introduced into their calendar the term of intangible criteria of time.
Time among the Serbs was built into the immaterial nature, so that material criteria cannot be the criteria of time. In other words, with the material astronomical standards an accurate calendar cannot be made.
Time for Serbs is a measure of immateriality of nature and not related to space and movement. Simply there is no connection between time and physical world, or space, so that the concept of the relativity of time is just fiction of the human being obtained with the help of mathematical combinatorics.
Every nation has its own symbol of time. At the Egyptians and the majority of the people of the European civilization space, the symbol of time was the solar or the lunar cycle. All these nations believe in the cyclicality of time based on astronomical standards, or circle as a symbol for time.
However, the two nations who did not have a circle as a symbol of time are the Serbian and the Jewish people. At the Jews the symbol of time was a skewed straight line which is directed towards the sky. At the Serbs it is a sloping arc with two cross-sections, which is also directed towards the sky.
A straight line and hair arc with two cross-sections of both nations have the same meaning. This is the Galactic arc on which the sun moves during one calendar year, around the center of the Galaxy. The sun needs 220 million years to make one circle, and from the galactic formation of the Milky Way until now, the sun has made 20 laps.
Seven millennia of Serbian Calendar
The oldest written records show that the Serbs started to count the time from 5508 BC. The Serbian calendar was until the 19th century, the official calendar of the Serbian state and the Serbian Orthodox Church. All administrative acts of the Serbian state were dated after the Serbian calendar.
Based on the old records we learn that the Serbs had a calendar, where the calendar year began in April and it was divided into two seasons, summer and winter where winter begins on the Day of Saint Mitar or in early November. The year was divided into 13 months (herbal calendar) which approximately was the number of rotations of the sun during a calendar year. After receiving Christianity and influenced by the economic environment, the Serbs created a calendar of 12 months.
However, in the 12th century the Saint Sava took the names of the month from the Roman calendar and brought them into the Serbian calendar (Rule of Law), which can be considered as a spiritual contribution to the Saint Sava communion of all Christians. Serbian people still respect the decision of the Saint Sava.
The oldest original document, which is dated by the Serbian calendar, is the Karyes Typikon of Saint Sava. The youngest document found in 2010 was the Cross of Vujan of the Patriarch Pavle in the monastery Vujan of the Serbian Orthodox Church. Both documents are dated by the symbol for the time that is unique in the calendar world, which comes from the Vinca culture.
The Serbian Orthodox Church has a large number of churches and monasteries that were Serbian universities: Hilandar, The Patriarchate of Peć, Dečani, Studenica, Žiča, Gračanica, Sopoćani, Virgo, Milečeva, Ravanica, Ljubostinja, Ćelije, Tronoša, Ostrog, Cetinje Monastery, Vujan, Hopovo , Krušedol, Vraćevšnica, Manasija, Djurdjevi Stupovi, Lepavina, Krka, Krupa, Dragović, Banjska, Piva, Savina, Soko, Gornjak, Vitovnica, Radovašnica, Tavna, Moštanica, Dobrun and others.
Serbian churches and Serbian universities gave the highest level of literary and artistic education. Literacy and artistic treatment of Serbian manuscripts and government documents have been created for thousands of years.
When we compare the protocol used in computer data processing and protocol at Serbian calendar we see that the protocols are the same. In both protocols, first has been written the year, then the month and at the end the day. Thus we come to the magnificent scientific knowledge that modern computer data processing is performed under the protocol of the Serbian calendar.
Geopotential
Geopotential is the atmospheric pressure at a certain height or the area on which the pressure is 10 milliards. When atmospheric pressure has been measured (geopotential) at 10 milliards we can see that it changes depending on the energy coming from the sun.
If the atmospheric pressure of 10 milliards is measured at the poles we see that the height of ten milliards surface has been changed. When through the magnetic door penetrate protons, the height of ten milliards surface will be reduced, but when the electrons penetrate, the height of ten milliards surface increases.
In the summer, the dominant energy is electronic, and in winter, protonic. When the surfaces of ten milliards on the northern and southern hemispheres equalize, then they show equal energy on the northern and southern hemispheres.

Their figurines have an almost Etruscan look about them.
I don't think so, but it would be a good idea to make a reconstruction. Not sure why they haven't.
Vinchan alphabet has al letters from Etruscan language, but even more and predates etruscan culture, it's confirmed by Profesor Radivoj Peshich published in Italy, and accepted by scientific comunity.
To me when I saw those Etruscan figurines they looked Egyptian.
@@frostflower5555because the Egyptian were the most advanced culture at the time they traded with Egypt and learned from them. Also from Greeks of course but people always ignore Egypt. Of course looking at the statues it’s obvious they were learning more from Egypt than from Greece.
Maybe the Etruscan came from the Vinca people. And weren't etruscan quite different from the latin people and all other people that lived in what is today Italy?
I am loving this channel mate. It is so far up my street it has built it has own house.

another great video. many thanks!
I started watching the video, watched the first part of the Introduction, went to bathroom and forgot to pause the video, then I came back from "Over 8000 years ago the first farm of Europe... with "Tanks, Planes and Helicopters..." and I was like "Oh, these were very advanced farmers"
Rainbs same thing happened to me so that made me wonder what is all this stuff about?
I had not heard of the Vinc^a culture! Interesting they were Mediterranean originally. And such large settlement. Unusual so early. There is so much we don't know from these early periods like grabbing smoke! But historians & archeologists have done an amazing job recreating these people & their lifestyle.
They are not Mediterranean originally, they are continuing civilization from Starcevo and Lepenski vir civilization
The things I am most curious about regarding human history is the development of metallurgy and cotton and linen fabric. Most material advancements I can envision a path to, these innovations are perplexing to me.
I was fascinated by their houses in a row, creating the first known streets.
Amazing as always
