2.000-year-old statue sheds light on seawater corrosion Information on corrosion control and prevention
The restoration of a 2.000-year-old bronze statue of a famed ancient Greek athlete may help modern scientists understand how to prevent metal corrosion. In 1998, the rare bronze sculpture of the male athlete Apoxyomenos, dating from about the second century BCE, was found submerged on the bottom of the Adriatic Sea off the coast of Croatia. Best known as The Scraper, the statue depicts an athlete scraping sweat and dust from his body with a small curved instrument.
