And why did you not post the error message? Because it is very clear:

ERROR:  malformed record literal: "ttt"
DETAIL:  Missing left parenthesis.

Indeed, attributetype has no column for this 'ttt' value. The correct
INSERT is:

INSERT INTO attribute2005 VALUES(1,(23,'ee',('2005-01-01','2005-12-31')));
