New technologies are rising higher and higher in the mountains - on the territory of the Dzhirakh-Assinsky Museum-Reserve, a national system for managing objects and safety "Territory" is being introduced. The system is extremely easy to use. It is enough to scan the code at the entrance to mountain Ingushetia to get all the necessary information about the area and sights.

Work on its implementation began in November last year.

Now specialists are engaged in measuring the boundaries of individual objects of cultural heritage, preparing an accurate description of objects, digitizing archival documents and photographs, connecting components of the digital information environment.

The main advantage of the system is that it can work even in areas where there is no Internet, if you scan the code in advance.

Coordinator of the Agency for Industrialization of Construction, member of the Committee of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation in the field of construction, well-known in Europe and Russia solution specialist Ruslan Marzaganov conducts research on samples of ancient mortar at cultural heritage sites of mountain Ingushetia.

Last autumn, together with colleagues of the Dzhirakh-Assinsky Museum-Reserve, about 28 samples were taken on initiative at four sites – Thab-Yerda, Albi-Yerda, Hamkhi and Qest. And at the moment, there will be studies of these samples. According to preliminary data, we can say that we have found an active mineral additive that gives strength to this solution, that is, in one way or another it is involved in different solutions. We are now trying to determine when this additive was introduced into the solution. Either it was introduced during the firing of lime, or it was introduced during the preparation of the mixture.

There are already some interesting observations, and if everything goes well, then we will start full-scale tests in the spring, in the late spring of this year, and will interact with the staff of the museum-reserve. We're going to start picking out objects that we're going to mint and make test stitches and we're going to watch them. This work is very thorough. I hope that I will be able to publish my works, similar to those I did in Germany, before this summer. There will be shown methods already tested in their work. I'm not giving a quick result because we have to study it carefully. It takes us about a year to get the first serious related findings. This work will continue because it is not only an Ingush work, but at least an all-Caucasian one. I have interaction with Georgian specialists, we will try to solve this issue in this interregional order, there are also specialists abroad who are interested in this work, but we must understand that everything that was built in the world up to the XIX century, was based on lime solutions, Marzaganov said.
