Which material property loss was a limiting factor for larger repeated castings of bronze cannon in the late bronze age?

💡 Explanation

Increased cooling times with the molds results increased porosity because dissolved gases had more time to precipitate out during cooling, therefore weakening the casting; rather than only chilling effects that creates surface hardness.
