[1][2] Returning from exile in Russia in 1817, Karađorđe Petrović as leader of the First Serbian Uprising and Revolutionary Serbia, and his companion Naum Krnar stayed at a field hut owned by Dragić Vojkić in Radovanje Grove, in the Radovanje village.

However, Miloš Obrenović I who had come to an arrangement with the Ottoman Turks as leader of the semi-autonomous Principality of Serbia, ordered for Karađorđe and Krnar to be assassinated.

Nikola Novaković, a confidant of Vujica Vulićević, cut off Karađorđe's head with a yatagan, and killed Krnar with a shotgun.

He buried them, both headless in a grave 100 feet away from the hut to the stream, and their heads, skinless and stuffed, were sent to Istanbul in order to prove to the Ottomans that the two were dead.
