Trypillian Civilization (5,400 - 2,750 B.C.) is an archeological name for the Neolithic culture that existed on the territory of present-day Ukraine. This culture is also known as Cucuteni on the territory of Romania. The real historical name for this culture is not fully established or agreed upon by scientists, but some researchers consider this culture to be the ancient Aratta.

The Trypillian culture was discovered in the year 1897 near the small village of Trypillia (south of Kyiv, Ukraine). Vicenty Khvoika, the archeologist who made the discovery, named this new and unknown to the world culture - The Trypillian Civilization. From that moment on, the territory of Ukraine became a homeland to one of the most ancient civilizations - The Trypillian Civilization, which flourished on her territory between 6,000 B.C. to 3,000 B.C.
