dc.descriptionWe study the properties of the globular cluster system of the ``old'' merger NGC 5018. We detect a relatively poor globular cluster system, that can be divided into at least two populations based on colors: a small population of blue clusters, aged between several hundred Myr to 6 Gyr, the formation of which was probably induced by the last interaction in the galaxy group; and one (possibly two) population(s) of old(er) clusters that can be associated with the original galaxy(ies).
