The giant Trypillya settlement, on the basis of which the State Historical and Cultural Reserve "Trypillian culture" was created in 2003, is located between the villages of Lehedzyne and Talianky. Belongs to III-IV millennia BC. It occupies an area of 450 hectares.
It was the largest known human settlement of that time - up to 15,000 people lived here. Up to 3,000 wooden houses of Trypillyans were located in concentric circles, which were surrounded by a protective rampart.
Currently, the reserve includes 11 hillforts within the Cherkasy region.
In Lehedzyne, the Museum of Giant Settlements was created, where Trypillya ceramics and other finds are presented. The creation of an open-air museum (open-air museum) is underway, where visitors can already live in reconstructed Trypillya houses and take part in archaeological excavations.
