AUTHOR INFORMATION

DAVID A. SCOTT, B.Sc., B.A., Ph.D., C.Chem. MRSC, FIIC, has been head of Museum Services of the Scientific Program at the Getty Conservation Institute since 1987. He has been a lecturer in conservation at the Institute of Archaeology, University of London, Department of Archaeological Conservation and Materials Science, and, since 1984, an editor of Studies in Conservation. He was named a fellow of the International Institute for Conservation in 1989. His principal research interests are the analysis and technical study of ancient metallic objects and their corrosion products, the conservation of metallic artifacts, the study of Chumash Indian rock art and the archaeometallurgy of ancient South America, particularly Colombia and Ecuador.
