For its scale, the Bilsk hillfort in the Poltava region is a paradoxically little-known historic monument. With an area of 5,000 hectares it is probably the largest settlement of the Early Iron Age in Eastern Europe. The historical reserve in Bilsk hides many mysteries left by the Scythians, who inhabited the city of Gelonus described by Herodotus. Tourists come here to see firsthand man-made earthen ramparts and try their hand at excavations. Archaeologists find new valuable artifacts every year, and the Bilsk reserve staff dreams of setting up a museum here.
