Abstract
Multilayered settlement near Nezvys’ko (the site is situated on the northern outskirts of the village on high floodplain (5–6 m) of the right bank of the Dniester River above Black creek, which flows through the bottom of deep ravine) in Horodenka district, Ivano-Frankivsk region became known after researches carried out by expedition of the Lviv University led by L. Kozłowski with participation of R. Hutchinson and J. Preston in 1926. Fragments of pottery of Trypillia period were transferred to the Department of archeology of the museum of Shevchenko Scientific Society, and later to the Lviv Historical Museum. Today there are more than a thousand of artifacts from this settlement deposited there. There are mainly ceramics of BI period and only a few ceramic wares dated to the period of BII. Materials from this excavation are almost not published yet and in collections of the Lviv Historical Museum finds from two different sites, situated near Nezvys’ko, are mixed. In paintings on ceramic ware appeared combination of black stripes with white, filled by thin red lines, garland-like and fir-tree-like ornaments, in some cases compositions are divided into several zones. Obviously, as it was noted by R. Vulpe and later by C. Chernysh, we can observe in ceramic complex of the site features of transition from phase BI to BI–BII. This polychrome painting we can see not only on ceramic ware from Nezvys’ko II, but also on ones from Kudrintsi, Frydrivtsi, Kadyivtsi where the main spiral strip changes its width and made unequal turns. Black color is obtained more importance. It is not just a line that outlines picture, but the background of composition now. Obviously, we are dealing with transition elements of decoration. The presences of such sites allow us to conclude that the transition from Cucuteni A to Cucuteni AB took place both to the west and to the east from Prut River’s basin. On the stage BI on some sites together with polychrome paintings bichrome one is traced. They are evolved over time and probably formed Zalishchyky type of ceramics.
