Vrčin

Vrčin (Serbian Cyrillic: Врчин) is a suburban settlement of Belgrade, Serbia.

Though the village itself was mentioned much later, historians Dušan J. Popović and Vladimir Ćorović traced the name of the locality back to the Roman period and the nearby temple of [N]orcinium.

After Slavic settlement, Roman names ending with -cin[ium] were mostly contracted to čin, while suffix -dunum was morphed into din.

North section: South section: Despite the recent development of workshops and the commercial sector (including the building of a shopping mall in the center of the settlement), the economy is mostly based on agriculture.

However, unofficial estimates that include refugees (not counted in the official census reports) also put Leštane before Vrčin.
