 People were able and wished to work but in 1946 other misfortune was expected-a hunger. With the end of war the pain, horror and alarm of people have not left war and material losses had awful consequences for mentality and people’s state of mind. Hunger in 1946-1947 in Bessarabsky region was one of the terrible consequences of war. The world should break up into two parts, the sun should cease to shine, the earth to turn over-that was on the Earth. But the world didn’t break, the Earth is turned, as it is necessary to it, and we go on this earth with the alarms and hopes we are legatees of everything that was. I wish to tell, how this terrible phenomenon has mentioned our village-Novoselskoye. For this purpose used memories of relatives, fellows villages which have passed through this hell. I consider that their words are very valuable historical source for phenomenon studying "Hunger 1946-1947” It was hard to listen, but it is necessary. Without the full truth about the past, what terrible it would not be, updating and clarification process is impossible. We will turn vague pages of authentic national memory professed by a voice of people-martyrs. The stories by citizens of Novoselskoye-eyewitnesses of hunger. The document N1.The story told by Ciobanu Zinovia Ivanovni, 1916 the date of birth, citizen of the village Novosolskoye. In 1946 in village has begun a hunger, from which many peasants were died. The death raged on village, as a snake. Our village was as a desert. People ran wild, fear for hunger and horror before starvation. Kind traditions were forgotten, were was a hatred and cruelty. The beggar has come into our log, hut and ragged the man has asked ”Give me to eat, please, give me to eat I beg”. I say to him: Where the kind man I will take to you, when I have two children, who have swelled up for hunger, in the house. That person has gone off nearby and has fallen dead. Without having food, peasants make bred from bran with grass addition, cooked a soup from plant ate kidneys from trees, corn stalks. The horses, sheep, hens, cows have been eaten, it was not visible dogs, cats, caught and ate a raven and sparrows. There were cases of cannibalism. When one gipsy has died, her children and the husband cut it and eat her, while it hasn’t deteriorated. Neighbours have noticed that it is not present. But have thought that she has run away from hunger and somewhere has died in the street. We have entered in collective farm ”Bolshevik” those years. Our children remained at home alone and hungry. In collective farm gave out on 100 grammes of bran and cooked from them a skilly. From such rations people already could not work. You go on village in the morning-there a person lies under a fence, and in other place mother with the son were died. As flies died people in the late autumn at that time. The first our son died in the field, when we collected grapes. Where there collected? We didn’t collect, force were not, we ate. We wrapped up in material and have buried. The second son has died at home, while I went behing a piece of bread from bran. I have exchanged the favourite dress brought by the husband on a way back from war for this bread. There were cases when people heated in ovens and got into it all family, to warmed. The husband sometimes went to collect corpses and to bury them. The majority of these people were not from our village. He buried them without knowing who they are as he said, there were cases when without having more forces to bury, they cut the heads. From collective farm took out all grain, even seed, took away not only collective-farm’s seeds, but all what was found in people’s houses, without leaving a kernel to peasants. The document N2. The story told by Caraceban Ecaterina Samoilovna,1944, v.Novoselskoye. The adults told different storis very often in evening.From my grandmather I have learn about terrible hunger events in village.I had three years in 1947. It ws terrible year-a poor harvest, a drought.Citizens of our to play with other children,butchildren were not in the street. At this time on our street passed the gipsy Berebeca. When she has seen me, she has stopped,took on hands and has gone.Fellows village have informed my parents.All began to search for me. Havehardly caught up with the gipsy,and I have been rescued.The gipsy under stories of eyewitnesses,went often in the evenings towards estuary.The grandpa has gone after it and was terrified.On the bank of estuary the gipsy lived in a poor digout.Human bones have been scottered around.The dismembered parts of a children’s body without pulp decayed.It was imposible toapproach to interiors.Inhabitants have caught the gipsy who has gone mad for hunger.She not only stole children but also dug out fresh tombsof children and ate them in a crude kind.However hunger was not only natural disaster.All stocs of last years were withdrawn by the soldiers, dooming the peasant on starvation.They went to the village and checkedgrain holes.Citizens of village lost last piece of bread. The document N3. The story told by Cotofan Valentini Ivanovici 1920,v.Novoselskoye. In 1946 was poor harvest.There were no rains and were nothing on fields.Children didn’n died so aften, as their parents because not breakfasts have been organised at schools.But in spite of many children became victims of this terrible disaster.In 1947 I worked in an elementary school.Two brothers attended school and suddenly one brother wasn’t in school,the day,two,three.I have asked his brother:why vanea doesnot go to school! He started to cry and has answered that his brother is not alive Vanea went in 4rd formбиге his younger brother Tolea went in 3rdform.I have asked:”How it is not present in live.He told that his motherand sister have killed Vanea by axe.A head have dug in a hole, but body have put in a bag.Both take meat and cook meal.Tolea told that if they do not trust him, they can find blood traces on walls.The teachers have informed in village council,the commision for visiting has been created. At once mother didn’t say truth, but when she has told all.The woman justified that if she would not kill one son, died all family. Mother and a daughter were taken away by police and Tolea was sent to the barding school. The documentN3 The story told by Azman Liubovi Ivanovna,1930, v.Novoselskoye. Only one year hunger tormented ua, but this year has carried away lives of hundreds people.Our family was not from poor and could live a bread piece every day because the father was reserved by grain.It has dug a hole, has covered with a clay and has hidden there grain, and from above has put a straw rick. These holes remind till now us about those terrible days,were called”thegrain holes”.In many court yard are landslips,because houses are constructed on those holes.But once the armed people have come into our court yard, have checked up all court yard and have found our "grain hole”.Then they came often and took away everything,leaving us to starve to death.Nothing stoped them:neither entreaty of adults,nor tearts of hungry children.They rose on an attic and took away nuts,grapes and all what the peasant reserved for the winter.That is why we and now value each crumb of bread. The Document №5. The story told by Andreeva Prascovia Ivanovna, 1919, v. Novoselskoye 1946-1947 imprint in our mind like a bitter memories. Because of drought the filds turned into the deserts, all dried up. Besides that, the state organized a group of people-communists, which went by homes and took all from the people. Our generation wince and in our day when they heart the names Jordanciu, Suricov, Undorenco. These people doomed on hunger deaf hundreds of families, taking all what they had edible: grain, fruit, pickles, They swept even the attics They tried to find something in ricks, in firewood, under the benches. We, the citizens of coastal village, went to estuary and picked up fern roots, seashens, dried them in oven, mixed with treshed corn stems, vine added corn flour and cook a small pancake, divided it on pieces to each member of the family. Very often it was single meal of the day. Some people ate frogs, ravens, dogs, cats. The Document №6 Dobrieva Anna Dmitrievna v. Novoselskoye In 1947 the wheat shoots have turned into dry thin leaves. The Earth groaned from the heat. Our family has understood that to pass this situation will be very difficult. But not only this trouble stood at our gate. All stocks which we have saved up for last year for us we can’t save. The soldiers and the sailors dressed in leather jackets, took away the acquired from our court yard. Children cried, women lamented, dogs howled. After soldier’s checks all calmed down. Sounds of the clarinettist weren’t audible, didn’t play weddings in the autumn. In village even dogs didn’t bark, them ate. In wells there was no water, in estuaries dirty water became a unique source of life. At hungry people only eyes shone. The Document №7 The story told by Starodubovskaia Alexandra Georgievna, 1928, v. Novoselskoye In 1946 in our village has begun collectivization. I had 18 years old. I have been employed in a baker’s shop as a saleswoman – a small stall. In 1946 has become hunger, people swelled up and died. Was a small bakery in the village – country oven. From a bakery I transported on a vehicle 100 loaf, on 1 kg a loaf. Bred, according to the order, sold on 100 gramme for the portion. Once during transportation I was attacked by hungry passers – by and have stolen 10 loaves. I have been completed to pay off with the poor salary. The bread did not suffice all and the hungry crowd has pressed down me by rack some times, by miracle has escaped. Then I went for work in buffet. There prepared 300 portions; soup from 10 gramme of meat, 1 potato and 100 gramme of bread. Once the hungry swelled up person has come into buffet. He has bought 7 portions, has sat down to table and, without having time to eat, has died. In the winter the thirteen – year boy has gone down through a flue on kitchen to steal products. Parents of the boy have died of hunger. The thin, sick, grown weak boy could not get out of kitchen. In the morning he lay hardly breathing near a plate. In the bosom he has hidden meat and potatoes. In such condition it have found I petitioned before the heads to leave the boy as a cook’s assistant. He has grown and has gone to Kiev. Later, about 50 years I have received a letter and a photo from him. Now he lives in Kiev and thanks me for that I have rescued him from a further deaf. His name is Pavel Savva. In present dialogue exist some versions of events in 1946 – 1947 in Ukraine, there was not a hunger these years, the hunger was, but its reason was only adverse weather conditions; these was a drought which tragical consequences have been strengthened by an antinational policy of the central authorities; in all is guilty the communistic power – as the central party. Really, these years for southern areas of Ukraine have appeared adverse of weather conditions; a drought, a poor harvest and as consequence – undereating. The first post war winter has appeared without snow, and spring and the beginning of summer – the most droughty for some last decades. Productivity of grain crops 1946 has fallen to 4 centners from hectare. But it is not defining. As the people interrogated by me testify, the main reason of hunger consisted in the position of state parties, especially the centre, which knew all about and have not undertaken any precautionary measures. Under the pretext of preparations the state spent actually full requisition of food resources of village, dooming there by peasants to hungry existence and further death. Thumbing through economic books of village Novoselskoye for 1944 – 1946 I has found such information: were court yards - 666, from them the thrown court yard – 28. In 609 court yard remains for the spring approximately barley– 1,75 – 2,3 t, corn – 1,5 – 2t, a string bean - 5 – 10 kg, a sunflower – 0,5 – 1 centner, a pumpkin – 0,25 c. The cattle presence in 1.01.1946 approximately in each court yard a horned cattle – 8, a pig – 4, horses – 2. With all these foodstuffs was possible to endure hunger winter 1946 – 1947. But in 1946 has begun collectivization in our village. From 638 families only 20 remained individual. The grain took away for needs of collective farm, and also for performance of the plan of preparations of bread by the stare. The representatives of local authorities organized special brigades which extorted grain from each owner, and in insubordination cases deprived of freedom for 10 years. It was the plan meaningly direct on physical destruction of peasants. An economy of peasants were ruined. Throughout 1946 – 1947 thousand people have died out. They died because has been selected last piece, last hope of rescue. Is it possible to forget about it? The quantity of victims of hunger precisely is not established. Local authority gives various figures of the dead from 300 till 900 people. Past years’ documents either were lost or deliberately annihilated. But there is people’s memory and we ought to gather all its nuggets and keep.

 

In 1960-s living standards of collective farmers were notably increasing. In the village the electric current appeared. It was generated by electric power stations of collective farms for their needs. Besides payment in kind, collective farmers began to get money. In many houses radio and TV sets appeared. The teacher Medvedev Vasily Andreevich was the first who bought a TV set, the director of the collective farm Yanku Ivan Petrovich was the second. In the village, a country club, a kindergarten, roads were built. Former school leavers and already certificated specialists returned to their native country and worked as teachers Medvedev Vasily Andreevich, Vranchanu Alexei Fedorovich, Sushkevich Evgeniya Semenovna, Kojokaru Dmitry Ivanovich, Karacheban Ivan Dmitrievich, etc. At the village district hospital Stamati Georgii Vasilievich works as a medical assistant and Karagyau Sofia Petrovna as an obstetrician. Collective farmers and representatives of other professions began to earn well, soon many newly weds build new houses of good quality. Almost everybody has a bicycle, every tenth has a moto-bicycle. New shops are built and old ones are equipped with modern amenities, "Selipo” appears. The first chairman was Chernev Vasily Petrovich. In the collective farm the bakery was built up which provides with bread kindergartens and tractor brigades, where tractor drivers have meal. All comers can buy bread in the collective farm stall where there is also milk, fresh meat, vine, oil and other foodstuffs. In the village welfare facilities house, which was built by the collective farm itself, villagers order and have suits and dresses made by individual requests. In the village in 1965 the House of Culture was put in commission. There was a hall with 700 seats where wide-screen film projector was set. The bus ran between the regional centre and the village. The aerodrome appeared in 1960 in the country. The airplane AN-2 "Kukuruznik” regularly hauled between the village and towns Ismail and Reni. The fly from the village Novoseliskoe to Ismail lasted for 7 min. and there were enough passengers. After 1960 the collective farm by Lenin became a large-scale farm. The state began to give new, more improved agricultural machinery. Instead of out-of-date tractors U-2, HTZ wheeled tractors "Belarusi”, "Vladimirets”, "T-40” appeare and also caterpillar tractors "DT-54”, "T-74”, "UMZ-2”. The collective farm get modern self-propelled combines "Niva” and "Kolos” instead of pull-type combine. For working and service of these machines it is necessary to have specialists with deep knowledge. The youth of our village study to become tractor drivers in vocational schools of the village Starokozachie and Suvorovo of Ismail region and to become combine operators in the village Teplitsa of Artsyiz region. A lot of youth release from the Soviet Army with drive licenses and work as drivers in the collective farms. Some of our school leavers finish driving schools DOSAAF. The collective farm is in great need of specialists in all branches. For the purpose many our school leavers get navigations to institutes of high education and vocational schools, and after getting professions return to work in their own farm. These specialists are Kapsamun Semen Dmitrievich - a graduate of Odessa Agricultural Institute, later the chief economist of the collective farm; Perju Ivan Vasilievich – the chief agronomist; Stamati Victor Mihailovich – the chief accountant; Chiobanu Feodor Ivanovich – the chief engineer. After graduation from vocational schools the mid-level specialists were: Kokosh Vladimir Pavlovich, Stamati Feodor Ilyich, Ivanov Petr Ivanovich, Mitioglu Ivan Nikolaevich, Burujiu Dmitry Ivanovich. Uzun, Mikhail Petrovich, Mitioglu Eugeny Anastasevich, Karacheban Vasily Ilyich, Nedelku Georghy Petrovich become the heads of livestock farms. In vegetable-growing our farm achieved very good figures and all that thanks to foreman Panta Nicholay Konstantinovich, who was awarded the highest state award - the Order of Lenin. After his retirement he was replaced by Kapsamun Mikhail Dmitrievich - a graduate of the Kishinev Agricultural Institute. The main specialization of the farm was vegetable-growing: peppers, tomatoes, eggplants, cabbage, cucumbers, squash. In 70-s the collective farm by Lenin becomes a farm - millionaire. Tractor drivers work on new and improved machines. Dairy-marketable farm made great progress. Cattle stock reached about 2000 cows and took the first place in milk yield in the region. Pig-marketable farm (PMF) in 80-s achieved good performance. During this period the farm was growing pigs of Poltava breed and PMF became the pedigree one. In 80-s the farm became to breed horses breed of "Russian cart-horse” breed. The collective farm became a major supplier of horses of this breed in the area and region. High rates were at a sheep- marketable farm. Welfare, education, and culture of the people grew year by year. In 1970, the village occupies 4 km. Total population is 3500 people, 850 households. Before the revolution, the social composition of the population was mostly illiterate peasants. There is a social situation in the village Novoselskoye in the early 70-s: 20 families of workers that work in the port of Renee, they were served by a service bus of the port; 30 families of intellectuals, 20 teachers with higher education, 22 teachers with secondary education; 2 doctors, 30 medical workers with special secondary education; 4 specialists with higher agricultural education in the farm, and 2 rural librarians with secondary education; 42 trade personnel with special secondary education. After 1991, when the Ukraine became an independent state debate and discussion about the land-mother, collective farms, forms and methods of managing began. There are many articles of historical content about how these farms were created. There were opinions that the land must find its owner. Since then, the collective activities of unsoldering of the land begin. This event concerned and our own farm by Lenin. At a general meeting of farmers, it was decided to do all farmers and pensioners who worked on the farm the owners of land shares. If someone wanted to take his land share for conducting of agriculture on an individual basis, he had the right to do this. Many our villagers took their land shares and formed their own peasant farms. Kapsamun Semen Dmitrievich, Shebeko Konstantin Georghievich, Andreev Victor Stepanovich and others were the first in the village. These people bought tractors and the necessary agricultural machines. There were many mistakes in the past, especially during Stalin's forced collectivization. The best landlords were repressed, and as a result not the best representatives of the peasantry managed a collective farm. In the future, it also affected both the quality of the cultivated land in farms and the attitude of the people to agriculture. In 90-s there were gross mistakes in the land distribution. It absolutely did not take into consideration the fact that the descendants of those peasants who were dispossessed in 50-s did not receive anything back from their ancestors’ lands. Ancestors’ lands were sprinkled by blood and sweat.

 

Folk art reflects the unusual nature, the artistic genius of the people, its vivid thinking, its creative imagination, the wise simplicity of the senses, its outlook. It glorifies the noblest traits of the national character - courage, humanity, devotion to civic duty, honor, heroic strength, optimism. As I live in the countryside, I have been always attracted by folk art objects: kitchen utensils, carpets, wood products, etc. But especially I was interested in the art of carpets, as a lot of them remained in our house from my grandmother and great-grandmother. In my paper I have tried to describe the history of folk art in our village - weaving. One of the most ancient crafts in our village was a carpet weaving. Carpets were irreplaceable items of all moldovan life. According to the national traditions, over the centuries artisans created different homespun items: carpets, leychers (mats), tsols (rugs). Their main feature is the ornament that conveys artistic thinking of the people, their boundless love for life around. The homespun rugs of Novoselskoe craftspeople are divided into: 1. A carpet is a decoration for walls; it has the length more than the height, the vertical pattern and the edging from every quarter. The design of the carpets consists of geometrical figures created on the plant motives: wood, a vase with flowers, a branch, a flower. The originality and vividness of these figures is in the proportional composition and in the lively contrast of colors. It is typical for a composition to place the identical elements in the centre or to alternate smaller elements, one of which is the main. The color spectrum is relative and does not correspond to natural inconsistent with natural shades. Black, red, green, blue, brown, orange colors are widely used. Soft and vivid shades create contrasts in the patterns. 2. A leycher is a long and narrow carpet that was laid on the benches. The ornament consists of repeating and alternating stripes, rhombuses, squares, triangles, roses. The combination of black, red, green, yellow and brown colors is used. It gives a special beauty and solemnity to the product. 3. A tsol is a multicolored striped rug, which was laid on the floor. A tsol was woven from wool, cotton, old fabric yarn. A very valuable raw material for weaving is wool. You cannot imagine our village without sheep breeding. This occupation is the oldest, which is likely to come to us from God. Both for Christ and for the residents of our region the loveliest animal is a sheep. But from the historical point of view, this occupation may be associated with previous civilizations, with tripoltsy, the Scythians, who also bred sheep. Sheep growing was at the origins of life in our area. Numerous legends, folk tales, songs, ballads are the evidence of this. It is difficult to find a Moldovan folk song where the shepherd with his beloved flock is not sung of. The most famous ballad, the pearl of Moldovan folklore is «Mioritza» which glorifies the life of a handsome but unhappy shepherd. „Near a low foothill At Heaven’s doorsill, Where the trail’s descending To the plain and ending, Here three shepherds keep Their three flocks of sheep...” Sheep breeding provided the natives with the livelihood: meat, sheep cheese, wool. Gentle fluffy wool threads pass a long way before they get to the weaver’s hands. Every spring the sheep are shorn in a flock, and the wool is brought home. Women clean the wool from the thorns, the burdocks, then they wash it several times, rinse it until it turns white. After the wool is dried in the sun. Then the wool is combed thread by thread. It becomes fluffy and silky. But the work does not end with it. The combed wool is treated with a special hackle, which thoroughly cleans from the dust. From under the shaft of the hackle the wool comes out in the form of the roll. It is thin and silky. After that, the spinning begins. For wool spinning housewives need spindles, which are made from poplar or ash tree. After spinning the wool is dyed. For this purpose, both the natural colors and the artificial ones were used. To obtain the natural colors leaves of onion (yellow), green fruit walnut (brown) were used. Before weaving the length and width of items were scurried. For weaving there was a loom for the women who worked.

 

10. Novoselskoye cuisine.

Novoselskoye is the land of rich natural possibilities, the land of grapes, fruits, various vegetables, as well as of sheep breeding and poultry farming. It is not surprising, that the national cuisine has used these resources since olden times. Novoselskoye cuisine keeps many original recipes. In ancient times, our land was situated in the way of the Romans, through which many Roman and Byzantine merchants carried their overseas goods. Our people borrowed from them some cooking ruses. A lot of valuable things were also taken from their northern neighbours-the Slavs. The importance of bread in national cuisine. Bread and bakery products were and are of great importance. In the XIX - the early of the XX century they were practically the basic nourishment of the majority of the population during the whole year. According to their composition, production, types and names bakery products were very various. Bread was the principal food, which became the main product even before the Turkish period. Bread was baked from different kinds of flour depending on the dominant grain, the welfare of the family and the purpose of the product. Apparently they were already able to produce different grain milling in the ancient times. This determined the availability of different sorts of bread. Large round bread was made from leavened dough and was baked in the stove on the ground; iron and earlier ceramic moulds were seldom used. Brown bread from rye flour prevailed. It was considered the main sort of bread. In the regions where the wheat crops prevailed wheat bread from coarse grinding flour was consumed more. Here and there they also baked the so-called brown bread from the mixture of wheat and rye flour. Since olden times it was known such names of bread as: "kovriga”, "kalatch”,”kit”. According to information of the XVI century kalatches of wheat bread were widespread. Besides bread, "doskitseli”(flat cakes) and pies with different stuffing were also baked from leavened dough. People took a respectful and even deferential attitude towards bread as towards the personification of human work, a God’s gift. This attitude also extended upon things, connected with its production, especially upon the kneading trough, in which the dough (plamadeala) was made, upon the tablecloth, which was used to cover the trough, the spade, which was used to put the bread into the stove. Neither bread nor its crumbs should fall on the floor. It wasn’t supposed to throw away useless bread anywhere; it could only be fed to cattle. The process of baking the bread in the stove reminded a kind of a ritual act. It required knowledge and experience from the farmer. A special routine was followed in order to obtain bread of good quality. All the processes of flour preparation, kneading and preparing the dough, its formation were made very accurately, without hurry and being blessed. The bread was put into a heated and clean-swept stove, not before each future "kit”(loaf) was crossed. While the bread was being baked, the hostess tried not to draw her attention away or do other things. First the bread was taken out of the stove, then it was sprinkled with water, after it was given time "to rest”, and it was left under a clean towel and only then it could be eaten. The oldest male in the family- the host usually cut the bread. Bread was baked in each family, usually once a week. The wedding "colaci” and "pupaza”, the Christmas "placinte”, " kalach”, Lenten "crosses”, Easter cakes, memorial Shrovetide pancakes and so on were obligatory accessories of the family life. The newlyweds and the honourable guests of were met with bread and salt. According to local traditions, big and small "kalatshes” were supposed to be baked on every holiday or feast. They were required when meeting guests and every house they had specific features. "Kalaches” served for ritual purposes. For example, they were given on the cemetery on memorial days. Before sitting down at the table, the head of the family-father, grandfather said a prayer- "Our Father”. Bread was always the most important product in our land, it was the base of the life in the village. It is difficult to imagine our land without sheep breeding. This occupation provided with means of subsistence: meat, sheep cheese (brynza), wool. Sheep cheese absorbed the smell of fresh grass and wild flowers, the clear lake water, the solar heat and the sweat of shepherds. Brynza (sheep cheese) is a kind of pickle cheese made of sheep milk; milk curdled with the help of a natural ferment- "cheag”. This the way of preparing of "Cheag”: take a pig’s stomach, a young lamb’s stomach, whey, beestings, vinegar and keep for a week in a warm place. Sheep cheese needs little time to prepare (1-1,5 weeks) and is made since earliest times in the large quantities. This process is based on traditional sheep breeding here, which got a great development in the XVII-XIX centuries, when it was the main farming branch. Sheep cheese needs little time to prepare (1-1,5 weeks) and is made since earliest times in the large quantities. This process is based on traditional sheep breeding here, which got a great development in the XVII-XIX centuries, when it was the main farming branch. "Brynza” is used not only as everyday snack in its natural form, but also in the grated form as addition and stuffing to vegetable, egg, floury and meat dishes. Before home – made cotton cheese was dried, then was putted in a clay jars, and cover above a row of pitch, for protection against the mold. Most of all is associated with mamaliga. Mamaliga in the time of war was replacing bread. Mamaliga it’s a traditional moldovian food that is not hard to cook. For this preparation it is taken only corn flour, crushed, before this it is dryed in the oven, and water. Proportion of the flour and water must to be 1:3 at six glass of water – 2 cups of corn flour. Boil the mamaliga in a deep pot or in a boiler. In salted boiled water we add by little flour, in the same time it is mixed. In the time of preparation we put in the middle the sticker for the easiest mixing. Must be boiled almost 25 minutes, then slow the fire and boil till it is stick, continuing mixing. Mamaliga is ready when the sticker it is not stuck. The boiler we shake a few times after this we overturn on a plain surface. For making mamaliga we need a special plate to become tasty, to not chilli and have no taste. Mamaliga must have the same shape as it was in the clay jar, to not stretch.Should be cutted by wood knife or with sewing. In the village it is served with sheep steak, pork steak. Placinta it is made by laying in slide slice of pastry, salt, one egg.On the slice we grease fat, stear the steared cotton cheese on the half of slice, rest of the slice it covers the mixture. It is turn in wrinkling form. Put in an oiled pan, together with white cream mixed with eggs. Put in the oven, on the big fire and then minimalizing the fire. Gliuzlomele – it is stretching the pastry of flour, 2 eggs, curd, salt, baken pouder. On the half of the slice we drop steared cotton cheese, it is covered with the rest half. It is cutted in guatres, and is fryed on the frying pan. Vegetable – famous occupation in Predunavie. Once Budjacsaia Hill was looking like heaven: was grew pepper, eggplant, tomatoes, cabbage. In the present it is kept the method of irrigation of the soil, like "caval” and "carik”. From vegetables was making extra and important meals. More often they were boiled or cooking in fire, filled, extinguished, and salted, rare was fried. Meat Meals – using meat was long time limited, because was not too much animals, difficult situation in the families, and long meatless and each week meatless days that together formed more days in the year.But meat was traditional food for our village. In the making meat food was accomplished rich experiences: invasion of many recipes having more popularity or less (salted bacon, fried meat in oven etc).According to established tradition, till the middle of 19th century, it was being ate more lamb. Without sheeps, no farm couldn’t handle. Sheep was needed also for meat and for fur, for belts, usually was held 5-6 sheeps, pork was considered Christmas food. In most families, before Christmas Eve was splinted a pork. Every day was using the domestics animals. Meat food was more important for holidays. In holidays, was making beef stewed with potatoes. Some meals like: boiled or fried chicken were the major of the table (for example wedding), other become traditional calendar days of holidays (calf pork on Christmas Eve) or turkey or goose or lamp for Easter). People who ate a lot of meat were using animal grease, which was added at the soup, mamaliga, potatoes. Novoselskie kitchen, was a mixture or every recepy from every nation, this is simple to see at the meat meals. Citizens use in national meals, equal lamp (cavurma, ciorba of lamb, sisirma) and pork (sausages, bacon, jelly, rolled meat) and cow meat (mititei), domestic animal (zeama, stewed meat with potatoes) Sheep barashka - sheep is cutted in pieces for roll meat, fry on sunflower. Take the cutted onion, tomatoes, spoon flour, stew till is done. It is served with mamaliga. Rolled meat – it is used pork meat. It is cutted small pieces. It is fried in pan with onion.

or what we need to study history?what can be interisting from post and why we need it?need we look back or look forward?A lot of situation in life shows that knowing history helps in future.Politics knows where can be brought their activity ,bussiness men and economics study the way of conducting,comparies,ideas,errors,artistics people look ideas in histories about ancient time.Is the civilization didn't knew history,it were going round , refeating the same mistakes that were done before.It could stopped the developing,we would live stone period ,live in caves,surving in hunting animals. Science can't live without history. In history is fixed work that was made by scientist of all time and nation. Modern scientist knows to what way to lead ,what to do,what conclusion to make from what was in past or better to open smth known but forgot laws.History is going straight,it is guide ,that you never will be lost. For me is very important to know history.Without this(can create future,whey not to use expirience my ancenstry in my orrientation?)in this way (can protect myself wrong steps of future. For what we need to study history? cicerone was calling history ''Teacher of living ''.IT is called that people take lesson from past do not make mistakes and base on historical experiences,fiind a easy way for self for their problems. Unfortumatelly,a lot uniq historical monuments in village was destroyed in 20 th century.Maybe they would answer at the question:''Who we are?'' Where we are coming from?But the memory remained how long is living human memory,it is continuing the relation with all past generation.
