Kyiv-land, called the cradle of the Ukrainian State system, remembers the ancient settlements on Trypillia and Cherniahov, the prince's turnpikes on Stugna and Trubezh rivers. Natural conditions of Polesja land and some villager's apartness from the civilization process brought to conservation here the ancient house holding and way of life, customs, traditional ceremonies and conceptions, which came from antiquity. As early as V-III cc. BC on this territory the ancient Trypillia culture thrived, that is nowadays a visit card of Ukraine. This culture "of painted ceramics" left us the rich material and spiritual wealth. It's the traces of big rounded settlements, implements, earthenware.
