EXPERIMENTATION OF THE MINISTERIAL SYSTEM SICAR w/a FOR THE COMPUTERIZED MANAGEMENT AND CONSULTATION OF DATA ON POLYCHROMY

The need for integration and sharing of data on ancient polychromies requires shared working methods and tools. This paper illustrates a first effort in the direction of testing the web-based Information System documentation for the Restoration of Yards (SICaR) of Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Tourism (MiBACT). This test activity suggested some changes that have been subsequently implemented in order to record archaeological and scientific information and manage standardized data on ancient polychromy in cultural heritage documentation.
