Paul D. Lynn (born 1964), is a late Egyptian/Early Coptic Art historian/conservator and is currently co-chair of the CCBDD Journal and Research Committee.[citation needed]
Research Contributions: Dr. Lynn has completed relevant research contributions in the areas of: cartonnage materials science testing,[1] pigment analysis and reconstruction,[2] conservation collections analysis,[3] as well as significant research and documentation in the area of Greco-Roman period Coptic funerary iconometry.[4][5]
Lynn is an active Egyptologist advocating current international restitution policies and guidelines regarding returning objects of significant artistic and historic value to their countries of origin.[6] He also espouses current trends in the conservation of historically significant objects and sites which attempt to leave culturally sensitive artifacts undisturbed when possible and to utilize all forms of non-destructive testing wherever practical.[citation needed]
