Archaeological research conducted over time has proven that on the territory of present-day Romania there has existed since ancient times a highly civilized human society that recorded slow but progressive accumulations generated by the natural environment of the territory endowed with a wide variety of forms that supported the free development of plants. The perceptible existence of wild but fruitful vines has been attested in two hundred and thirty localities. The attractive taste which he had at first occasionally discovered in the fruits mentioned above had certainly aroused the well-deserved attention of the primitive human being, and had therefore led him to deliberately take successive but strictly local actions to remove the other surrounding plants which might have become obstacles to the undisturbed development of the vine, applying to them at that time the so-called "paralysis procedure". That's how runcs came about. The natural and extensive territorial progress of the vine has always been due to its intrinsic characteristics, namely: minimum requirements for environmental factors; easy rooting; vegetative propagation. This was therefore the main reason why vines were among the first plants taken into farms. Our ancestors dedicated special attention to vine cultivation and wine technology, as evidenced by the numerous vessels and utensils discovered throughout the country as well as the large number of localities that have names derived from vine culture.
