Cultural Variants / 99 Table 6. Sixteen Radiocarbon Dates and Calibrated Date Ranges for White Marl and Related Sites. as lower and upper limits in the next two columns from the left. Thus, the first calibrated date is Y-1117, which has an age in radiocarbon years of 1016 ± 95 b.p.. The calibrated range at one standard deviation is a.d. 956–1130, a measurement that ensures that .804 of the area under the probability distribution is covered. The final calculation on the right- hand side gives the median point of this range, which in this case is a.d. 1043. This calculation is not part of the CALIB procedure, but has been introduced here for comparative purposes, as explained below. It will be noted that the median date for Y-1117 is younger than the date that would be obtained by a direct conversion from the radiocarbon date itself, which would work out at a.d. 934. This tendency for the calibrated dates to be younger than the converted radiocarbon dates is common to all the dates quoted here, and would apply no matter what calibration program was used, since this is what this part of the calibration curve (in the years a.d.) looks like. The difference is not drastic, but at this time scale it is important.
100 / Chapter 7. Table 7. Fourteen Radiocarbon Dates and Calibrated Date Ranges for Green Castle and Related Sites. It is instructive to compare these dates with those obtained for sites in the Annotto Bay area as part of the UWI–Murray State University project mentioned in Chapter 2 ( Allsworth- Jones and Wesler 2003). This project encompasses Green Castle (Y25), Newry (Y27), Coleraine (Y19), and Wentworth (Y8), which is somewhat farther to the west. The results are set out in Table 7, which has been drawn up in the same manner as discussed above. There are 14 calibrated dates all told, eight of them being from Green Castle. One of the Green Castle results (Beta-134378) and three of those from Coleraine (Beta- 182409–11) have been excluded as evidently contaminated. Broadly speaking, the results are similar, but the information from the two sets of data as a whole can be explicitly compared making use of the median dates already mentioned. The method chosen has been to employ age dispersion diagrams along the lines of those originally proposed by Ottaway (1973) except that now calibrated medians rather than radiocarbon dates are used. In this method, the range, the median, and the interquartile range of the dates under consideration
