The title of this page is incorrect, as it contains an Ä. I don't know how to fix this.


I don't know much about this culture, but I'm assuming that they aren't an Indo-European group. Does someone have more info?--Moosh88 05:53, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

No, they were not. In the 6th millenium BC, the Indo-Europeans still lived in their Urheimat. bogdan ʤjuʃkə | Talk 07:47, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I find the "Vinča today" section lacks neutral phrasing ("thanks to" and alike...).

This article uses far too many times modern toponyms such as Serbia, Bulgaria, etc., which didn't exist for another 5000 years, as these peoples came a lot later into the Balkans. Phrases such as "modern-day Bulgaria", "what is today Serbia" should be used. 87.202.108.116 22:24, 23 April 2007 (UTC)


What is the pronunciation of the Č (c with caron) in this word? How is it different from plain vinca?

It's pronounced as ch in chair. Plain vinca doesn't mean anything, I assume the only reason people sometimes write it that way is because they don't have the central european languages character set installed on their machine. Edrigu 23:26, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
