History

Early History

The village was founded in the beginning of the 18th century, by the Lipovans (Russian Old Believers) who fled persecution the Russian Empire. During this time, the region was under control of the Turks. The Turks traditionally accepted refugees in their lands, and patronized the population of these lands. The area was originally called Zhebriyany. After the annexation of Bessarabia and Budjak to the Russian Empire, Zhebriyany became a border village, and after the dissolution of the Zaporizhian Sich, many Cossacks moved to the Danube Delta, creating Danube Sich, and from there they absorbed the village. In 1905 the village's first Lipovan church was founded, becoming a local attraction.

During the Russian Civil War Southern Bessarabia was occupied by the Romanians, and with it, the village. In 1940 the territory was returned to the Soviet Union and became a part of the Ukrainian SSR.
