 For the first time in the archaeology of Western Ukraine, the materials of research on the multilayered site of Upper Dniester area, Bilshivtsi (Kuty), have been fully published. The following layers were discovered at the site: Paleolithic, Neolithic (Linear culture), Eneolithic (Trypillian culture – Zalishchyky group, Shipinitsy group, Koshylivtsy group), Early Bronze Age (Mezhanovitska culture), Middle Ages (Galician Rus). Connections of prehistoric cultures of Upper Dniester area have been discovered. In the Neolithic time (VI millennium BC), the population of the Linear culture had contacts with the Criš culture and the Tiszadob local group. In the Eneolithic time, the population of the Trypillian culture of the Zalishchyky group (late 5th millennium BC) communicated with people of the Malica culture, the Lublin-Volhynia culture, and the Tyszapolgár culture. The population of the Koshylivtsy group of the Trypillian culture (mid-4th millennium BC) had contacts with the population of the Funnel Ware culture and the Brynzany group of the Trypillian culture. The study of the multilayered site of Bilshivtsi (Kuty) allowed us to clarify the boundaries of the Trypillian culture in the late 5th, early and mid-4th millennia BC. Research in Kozyna (Solovche) for the first time in archaeology discovered an early Trypillia site in Upper Dniester area. It dates back to the middle of the 5th millennium BC. Analysis of ceramics showed that the population of that time was in contact with the population of the Malica culture and the Tyszapolgár culture. Archaeological research in the settlement of Zalukva (Sad) discovered a site and a pit of the Trypillia culture of the B II stage. This is the first well-documented site of the Trypillia culture of the 4th millennium BC in Upper Dniester area. An object (pit) of early Trypillia was discovered at this site. This is the second site of early Trypillia in Upper Dniester area. The obtained research results allowed us to significant
