Real Time. Radiocarbon Dates and Bayesian Analysis of the Neolithic Settlement at Bronocice - Janusz Kruk, Milisauskas Sarunas, Piotr Włodarczyk

In this publication, we are using Bayesian chronological modeling for the interpretation of radiocarbon dates from Bronocice. This permits us to combine a large number of radiocarbon dates with the other archaeological data. The benefits of this analysis is stated by A. Bayliis: "Bayesian statistics provide a formal and explicit methodology for weaning together different strands of evidence to form the cable. Calibrated radiocarbon dates or other data estimates on the calendar scale, are combined with archaeological prior information of various kinds to produce a combined chronology that should be more reliable than its individual components, The resultant cable should be both stronger (more robust) and tighter (more precise)". Sometimes it is called the third radiocarbon revolution.
