contents This article is concerned with the parabolic Monge-Ampère equation $-u_t\det D_x^2u=f$, where $f=f_1(x)f_2(t)$ and $f_1,f_2$ are positive periodic functions. We prove that any classical parabolically convex ancient solution $u$ must be of the form $-τt+p(x)+v(x,t)$, where $τ$ is a positive constant, $p(x)$ is a convex quadratic polynomial, and $v$ inherits both the spatial and temporal periodicity from $f$. This work extends previous contributions by Caffarelli-Li \cite{cl04} on periodic frameworks for the elliptic Monge-Ampère equations, and generalizes Zhang-Bao \cite{zb18}'s Liouville theorem for $f_2\equiv1$ in parabolic case.
