У статті йдеться про основні проблеми вивчення, інтерпретації й реконструкції інтер’єру в архітектурі Трипілля-Кукутені.
The interior of Trypillian houses is not as available
object as the interior of the folk architecture to which it
actually belongs. The necessary steps to study the interior
of Copper Age houses from archeological sites are:
• field research and advanced fixation in field documentation
of detected interior details / remains;
• interpretation of discovered archaeological data;
• reconstruction of identified structural elements —
the ultimate goal of the study which can be carried out
on the basis of the interpretation of archeological objects
using the method of study of buildings used by
ethnology.
It is necessary to take into account the sacral load
of all elements of the dwelling, as well as the factor of
transformation of them in the final stage of the settlement’s
life into a ritual object. Formally, the following
clay interior details can be distinguished: I — various
enhancements, including rectangular and round elevations,
side elevations, cruciform elevations, and catwalks;
II — special clay storage tanks; III — furnaces.
The analysis of the interior of Cucuteni—Trypillya
dwellings shows the unity of the architectural tradition
from the early up to the final stages. The origins
of these traditions are related to the interior and ritual
sphere of dwellings and settlements discovered in the
oldest Neolithic Cultures of Europe. Clay interior details
are characteristic of the architecture of the neoneolithic
crops of South-Eastern Europe. They are especially
often recorded in buildings that were burned in
ritual fires. Clay interior designs including in the form
of rectangular and circular elevations are recorded in
buildings of such cultures as Hamangia III, Boyan, Vedastra,
different variants and periods of Vinca Culture.
The rituals, similar to Trypillian ones, associated with
rituals, known in the cultures of Tisza, Kojaderman-
Karanovo-Gumelnitsa, Selkutsa.
