abstract: While individual calibrated radiocarbon dates can span several centuries,
  combining multiple dates together with any chronological constraints can make a
  chronology much more robust and precise. This package uses Bayesian methods to enforce
  the chronological ordering of radiocarbon and other dates, for example for trees
  with multiple radiocarbon dates spaced at exactly known intervals (e.g., 10 annual
  rings). For methods see Christen 2003 <https://doi.org/10.11141/ia.13.2>. Another
  example is sites where the relative chronological position of the dates is taken
  into account - the ages of dates further down a site must be older than those of
  dates further up (Buck, Kenworthy, Litton and Smith 1991 <https://doi.org/10.1017/S0003598X00080534>;
  Nicholls and Jones 2001 <https://doi.org/10.1111/1467-9876.00250>). The paper accompanying
  this R package is Blaauw et al. 2024 <https://doi.org/10.1017/RDC.2024.56>.
