Nicolae Beldiceanu

Beldiceanu was the first person to write about the discoveries made at the archaeological site near the town of Cucuteni, Romania. He had helped four other scholars from Iași with its excavation in 1885, the year he published an article entitled Antichitățile de la Cucuteni (Antiquities of Cucuteni).[1] Here was made the first discovery of what became known as the Cucuteni-Trypillian culture.[citation needed]

His son and namesake, Nicolae, was also a poet and writer.
