The representatives of six tribes and nationalities, found here their last shelter. The searchers were amazed by the rests of two Hungarian girls, aged five and seven years approximately .

The unique jewelry was found in their burial places. According to Olexander Suprunenko, the expedition head of the Archeological Institute of Ukraine, the Hungarian tribes of the Middle Volga region were forced to move to the Transnistrian steppes (Pridneprovie).

They met with the pechenegs who started to press them and became their main competitors. And so they came to the Transnistrian steppes, wishing to receive the next motherland and a shelter for nomads.

But after a year or two, they received the permission from the Old Russian princes and got to the right bank of the Dnipro river, moving to the Panonsky plains, where they created the future Hungarian kingdom, the head of the search expedition told.
