JOM: Volume 47, Number 1--January 1995



ABOUT THE COVER
After a long absence, the popular column Archaeometallurgy makes its return in this month's issue with a new name, Archaeotechnology, and a new series coordinator, Robert M. Ehrenreich. Better still, Archaeotechnology will be a bimonthly department of the journal. Reflecting this revival, the cover features illustrations from this month's installment, an examination of ancient Korean body armor (the inset image). In the background are iron ingots. For more detail, turn to page 38.
