An experimental study on the Preservation of Wooden Artifacts Discovered during Archaeological Excavations: A Case study of wood and Lacquerware from the City of Khar Balgas

This Research methodology for the conservation of painted wood products with water content found in archaeological excavations from the Eurasian steppe region has not yet been conducted in Mongolia. Therefore, it aimed to explore and localize restoration methods to preserve and extend the lifespan of wood products with water content found in archeological excavations. Research has shown that it is possible to use sugar solution to strengthen wooden articles found during archeological excavations in the territory of our country, which has an extreme steppe climate, to make for exhibits, and to extend their lifespan based on our laboratory and resources. The wood products found 200 pieces in the Uyghur Kharbalgas Palace, well wooden lighters found in Jujan's tomb were completed between July 23, 2020, and March 2022.

Abstract

This Research methodology for the conservation of painted wood products with water content found in archaeological excavations from the Eurasian steppe region has not yet been conducted in Mongolia. Therefore, it aimed to explore and localize restoration methods to preserve and extend the lifespan of wood products with water content found in archeological excavations. Research has shown that it is possible to use sugar solution to strengthen wooden articles found during archeological excavations in the territory of our country, which has an extreme steppe climate, to make for exhibits, and to extend their lifespan based on our laboratory and resources. The wood products found 200 pieces in the Uyghur Kharbalgas Palace, well wooden lighters found in Jujan's tomb were completed between July 23, 2020, and March 2022.
