Nicolae Beldiceanu (; 26 October 1844 in PreuteÃÂti - 2 February 1896 in IaÃÂi) was a Romanian poet and novelist.
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 IaÃÂi with its excavation in 1885, the year he published an article entitled AntichitÃÂÃÂile de la Cucuteni (Antiquities of Cucuteni). Here was made the first discovery of what became known as the Cucuteni-Trypillian culture.
His son and namesake, Nicolae, was also a poet and writer.
