Karabutove (formerly Korybutiv) is a village in Sumy Oblast, Ukraine. As of 2001, the population was 505 people. It is located on the right bank of the Romen river at its confluence with the Torgovytsia River, 28km (17miles) from the district center. The first mention of the village dates back to 1572.[1] [2]
Professor of Kyiv State University K. Tyshchenko interprets the origin of the name of the village either from the name of Prince Koribut, or from Lithuanian language:[5]
In 1991, the population of the village supported the Act of Restoration of State Independence of Ukraine. However, as a result of the Russian occupation, the demographic base of the village and its social structure were significantly undermined.[6]
The following activities are carried out on the territory of the village council: the Karabutiv village council, the agricultural enterprise STOV "Batkivshchyna", a paramedic-midwifery center, a comprehensive school of the 1st-3rd grades, a village club, a library, private shops.[7]
