history
The village of Buitoni was first mentioned in documents in 1337. According to a Turkish defter from 1554, Butyin has 7 houses. On the Josephine land survey of 1717, Budschin is registered with 23 houses and belonged to the Vršac district . On the Mercy map from 1723, Puthin is inhabited. At the beginning of the 19th century, the landowner Bissingen-Nippenburg settled Slovaks and Germans in the village, which resulted in the emigration of Romanians . These migrated to Deliblato and Selleusch in what is now the Serbian Banat . As a result, the Slovaks formed the majority of the population.
After the Austro-Hungarian Compromise (1867), the Banat was annexed to the Kingdom of Hungary within the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary . The official place name was Temesbökeny . In the interwar period the place was called Buteni . The Treaty of Trianon on June 4, 1920 resulted in the Banat being divided into three parts, whereby Butin fell to the Kingdom of Romania .
As a result of the Waffen-SS Agreement of May 12, 1943 between the Antonescu government and Hitler's Germany , all men of German origin who were conscripted into the German army. The Germans from Romania had to pay for this after Romania switched sides on August 23, 1944. Before the end of the war, in January 1945, all ethnic German women between the ages of 18 and 30 and men between the ages of 16 and 45 were deported to the Soviet Union for reconstruction work .
The Land Reform Act of March 23, 1945 , which provided for the expropriation of German farmers without compensation, as former members of the German ethnic group in Romania , deprived the rural population of their livelihood. At the same time, the houses of the Germans were also expropriated without compensation. Land and farmhouses were distributed to smallholders, farm workers and colonists from other parts of the country.
The nationalization law of June 11, 1948 , which provided for the nationalization of all industrial and commercial enterprises, banks and insurance companies, resulted in the expropriation of all commercial enterprises. In the early 1950s, the collectivization of agriculture took place.
Since the population along the Romanian-Yugoslav border was classified as a security risk by the Romanian government after Stalin's rift with Tito and his exclusion from the Cominform alliance, they were deported to the Bărăgan steppe on June 18, 1951, regardless of ethnicity . At the same time, the Romanian leadership aimed to break the resistance against the impending collectivization of agriculture. When the Bărăgan abductees returned home in 1956, the houses and farms expropriated in 1945 were returned to them. However, the field ownership was collectivized.
