He migrated to Posen, in Prussia (now Poznań, in Poland), and entered in contact with the small Aromanian community in the city, mostly composed by merchants.
He became an academic and a protopope, serving in a church in Posen most likely erected by the typically Eastern Orthodox Aromanian merchants of the city.
[1][2] Ucuta published in 1797 in Vienna, in the Habsburg monarchy, the primer Νεα Παιδαγωγία (Nea Paidagogía, "New Pedadogy"), written in Aromanian but with the Greek alphabet.
[2] Ucuta's primer may have been used by children and adults of the Aromanian community of Posen; if this was the case, it would have been their first time seeing their native language written down into a full work.
It was from an Aromanian living in Bitola (then in the Ottoman Empire, now in North Macedonia) with origins from Moscopole that Ucuta's primer became known in Romania.
