History
editThe former village was resettled in 2003 to make room for the expansion of the coal field "Tamnava" of the nearby Kolubara coal mine, centered at Veliki Crljeni). The new village was built a few kilometers away, but most residents chose to resettle elsewhere.[2]
A modern regional landfill was planned to be opened on abandoned coalfields near Kalenić in 2013.[3]
