Until very recently, estimates of the chemical composition at early epochs of the Galaxy were made through the analysis of halo field stars. Recently, however some medium dispersion studies of stars in globular clusters have appeared. It would be expected that both approaches would lead to identical results. However, a quick glance at the literature gives the opposite impression.
