Nicolae Beldiceanu

Nicolae Beldiceanu (October 26, 1844, in Preutești - February 2, 1896 in Iași) was a Romanian poet and novelist. Beldiceanu was the first person to write about the discoveries made at the Cucuteni archaeological site near the town of Cucuteni, Romania. He had helped four other scholars from Iași with the excavation of this site in 1885, and published an article entitled: Antichitățile de la Cucuteni (Antiquities of Cucuteni)[1] the same year. This site was the first discovery of what would later became known as the Cucuteni-Trypillian culture.

His son Nicolae N. Beldiceanu was also a noted poet and writer.
