THE TRYPILLIAN ARCHAEOLOGICAL HERITAGE IN THE MIDDLE DNIESTER AREA:

THREATS OF DESTRUCTION AND SAVING ACTIVITIES


The article considers the human impact on archaeological sites in the middle Dniester river area, their destroying and possible solutions. Specified short history of researching the sites and Ukrainian law about protection of the cultural heritage. The sites and locations of Trypillian culture in this area are very important for researching of eneolithic cultural interactions in Eastern Europe. Citizens, building companies and local authorities do not care about archaeological sites because famous and popular information agencies mostly do not have qualitative content about cultural heritage protection and new studies of Ukrainian scientists (including archaeologists). Moreover, the lack of professionals in the government structures versed in heritage protection does not make the situation with local policy better. Resolving the problems with employment policy and changes in law will help to lessen the amount of destructed archaeological sites. Worldwide the archaeological studies help to develop small towns and increase respect for the World history.

Keywords: archeology, archeological sites, cultural heritage protection, Trypillian culture, Dniester river area.
