Recently The New York Times published an article about the mounds of Ukraine. The journalist describes the significance of mounds for Ukrainians as one of the symbols of national identity. On the example or the Surski mound, which was diged last year, we see what is happening now with the oldest monuments in Ukraine. Ukraine is the land of mounds. Tens of thousands of ancient graves were the part of the Ukrainian landscape. Some of them were especially large. This is TOP 5 of the biggest mounds in Ukraine.

In Ireland, near the town of Bru-na-Boyne stands the majestic Newgrange Mound, one of the oldest buildings in Western Europe, built about 5,000 years ago. Respectable age and large size are not the only features of this monument. Inside the mound is a long corridor made of boulders. The length of the passage is 19 meters and it leads to the chamber, the base of which is composed of vertically placed monoliths weighing from 20 to 40 tons each.

In Ukraine close to the city of Dnipro, the majestic Eneolithic mound has been excavated.  Its age is 5 - 5.5 thousand years. The New York Times told about the reasons for the liquidation of the monument and about Ukrainian organization The Guardians of Mounds which call for the preservation of the Sursky Mound.  Two dozen burials and a circle of stones were found in a high grave. Journalists and archaeologists, unaware of what they had found, called it "Ukrainian Stonehenge." The guardians of the mounds have solved a puzzle that is 5 thousand years old.

In the network, you can find a picture on the mammoth bone, which is 15 000 years old. Archaeologists say that this is the oldest map from the Stone Age. It was found in the village of Mezhyrich in Ukraine. We have a reason to doubt this conclusion of scientists.

One small plate of Trypillia culture, which is at least six millennia old, will show us the astronomical knowledge of Trypillia people and their ritual cycle. Some see the Sun and the Moon on painted pottery.

A unique artifact from the Trypillia plate was presented in the Museum of the Formation of the Ukrainian Nation. It has a diameter of 60 cm, 6000 years and a very interesting pattern. Since one of the basic human instincts is to see anthropological features in images even where they do not exist, journalists have already called the Trypillia artifact a plate with "smilies". Really similar, but not a unique plate. It contains invaluable information that is six millennia old. I deciphered the message of the people of Trypillia.

In 2012 near the Nebelivka village, Kirovograd region, Ukraine at the territory of one of the largest settlements of Cucuteni-Trypillia civilization dating from 4000 BC archaeologists excavated a building that was unique for its time.

For human in all ages, the Sun was more than a mere celestial body. It was a deity and source of life. However, one may see this deity only at the hours of its emergence on the horizon during the sunrise and the sunset. How did the people in ancient times observe, for instance, an incredible phenomenon of eclipse with their eyes safe? One might pour water into a bowl and watch the reflection. That was the very thing that they did for thousands of years, until the representatives of the Catacomb Archeological Culture improved the method.

The geometry of the Bezvodovka solar observatory in some way is determined by the terrain of the area, however, at the same time, its mathematical proportions perfectly fit the landscape. The sorcerers/astronomers observed the nature and its phenomena, and knew, or it’s better to say, wot its laws, therefore the mathematics of the harmony of the surrounding world is presented within the observatory’s geometry. The solar observatory of Bezvodovka is not a random group of land mounds but a complex planned in a mathematical way and having its geometry. The evidence of that is the proportions laid by the architects into the observatory’s structure.
