Sharada Srinivasan is Professor at the National Institute of Advanced Studies, Bangalore. She has made pioneering contributions to the study of archaeology and history of art from the perspective of exploring engineering applications in these disciplines, i.e. archaeometry, archaeometallurgy and archaeological sciences. Her landmark contributions have included archaeometric characterisation of bronzes of South India using lead isotope analysis, archaeometallurgical studies on ancient mining and metallurgy in southern India, studies on wootz steel, and documenting artisanal technologies such as mirror making and bronze casting at Swamimalai.
