The chronological historical frame of the migrations from Macedonia towards Ukraine last since the medieval time, up to the time when Macedonia became a part of the Ottoman Empire (1395). The second phase covers the period of the Ottoman rule, so it could be analyzed in the period of the powerful Ottoman central authority (15th-18th centuries) and during the revival period (19th and beginning of 20th century). The migrations of Macedonians towards Ukraine were various and complex, characterized by most dominant types of migration, often mutual connected: church missions, education, trade connections, military missions, individual exile. The periods of migration are differentiating between each other according to the social-political relations that change the reason, aim and profile of the migrant. We follow changes of the type of migration, speaking about dominant types in certain periods.
