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

The main cultural and historical processes in the Ancient World were determined by Eurasian communication of the Early Nomads, which combined remote regions and civilizations, forming a branched of the trans-continental channels of distribution excellence, and inventions of various goods, which stimulated the evolution, development, and production of its own vehicles. This assumption is based on a thorough examination of relevant written, pictorial, and archaeological sources; facts support the notion that the Cimmerians of the inland areas originated in Central Asia, as well as evidence of widespread chariot and cavalry use. The historical Cimmerians are identified by the author as carriers of Karasuk archaeological culture and its derivatives.
