It turns out that Byzantine art, and art Hucul very similar. Where Hutsul roots?

This is a very long history and one sentence can not write.

Archaeological excavations show about the settlement of the tribes still 500 thousand years ago. There were Celtic tribes, Dacians. In the first centuries of our era Transcarpathia was in the zone of influence of the Roman Empire. And about this time settled by Slavonic tribes. In the second half of X century. Transcarpathia passes to the Kievan Rus. From this point of Transcarpathia fixed name "Rus", and local residents began to call themselves Rusnak or "Ruthenians." It seems at this time under the influence of Christianity and were introduced to the culture of the Byzantine character.

During the I century AD region repeatedly crossed by nomadic tribes: the Sarmatians, Scythians, gunas. In 800 years of our century, the pass went over the Hungarians, who settled in the Pannonian Basin, gradually they began to colonize the entire region. From that time until the beginning of the twentieth century Transcarpathia almost always was a part of Hungary. This area bore the name "Hungarian Rus'

If you study the history of Transcarpathia, the closer to me not Hutsul themes, and stories associated with Mukachevo castle. For example rule Ilona Zrinyi or dark story of Saint-Germain. These things my friend likes to say the artist Josef Bartos. He privatized the real medieval castle near Mukachevo. Sam (sometimes it helps grandees, but rarely) restoring the castle and tries to make it a museum. Why not heroic action in our time?
