Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Сложные литые изделия из бронзы и железа, столь характерные для раннего железного века Евразийской степи, как правило, связывают с применением литья по восковой модели. В статье предложена альтернативная гипотеза о возможном изготовлении таких предметов. Предположение о литье в створчатые формы подвергнуто проверке с помощью метода экспериментального моделирования. При описании методики приведены современные представления об экспериментальном моделировании в науке и технике. Полученные результаты, не претендуя на безусловную истину, показывают иные способы отливки сложных предметов. Complex cast bronze and iron objects, so characteristic of the Early Iron Age of the Eurasian steppe, are generally associated with the use of the lost wax technique. In this article, an alternative hypothesis about the possible production of such artefacts is put forward. The assumption that they were cast in two-shell (two-part) moulds was tested by the method of experimental modelling. In the description of the modelling methodology, current perspectives of experimental modelling in science and technology are presented. Without claiming absolute certainty, the results obtained show alternative ways of moulding complex objects. In order to make an accurate and well-founded judgement on the production of a particular artefact, its thorough investigation is required.
