Özet
This paper examines the subject of whistling arrows, a type of military equipment that can produce a whistling sound through the use of horn or bone whistles. Despite their fascinating nature, whistling arrows have been a largely understudied topic within the medieval archery legacy due to the difficulty involved in their manufacture and testing. However, the growing availability of 3D printers has made it increasingly feasible for researchers to test and analyse archaeological artifacts. Accordingly, this study tests the hypothesis of using 3D models produced by 3D printers to overcome the challenges associated with manufacturing whistling arrows. Ten 3D whistle models based on three different typologies dating to the Turkic Khaganate period were printed and subsequently tested, with the resulting sounds recorded and analysed. Through this approach, the study seeks to contribute to a better understanding of the acoustic and mechanical properties of whistling arrows.
