It has long been apparent that the rich star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds differ widely in age, a circumstance which renders these clusters particularly useful in tracing the age-metallicity relations of their parent systems. We have attempted to exploit this potential by studying the integrated light of red globular clusters in the Large and Small Clouds.
