RADIOCARBON TRENDS AND THE EAST TEXAS CADDO TRADITION (CA. A.D. 800-1680)

Through the employment of radiocarbon ( 14 C) dates as data, we use the date combination process to refine site-specific summed probability distributions for 555 dates from Caddo sites (n = 19) in East Texas with 10 or more 14 C dates. Summed probability distributions are then contrasted across rive...

Zusammenfassung:Through the employment of radiocarbon ( 14 C) dates as data, we use the date combination process to refine site-specific summed probability distributions for 555 dates from Caddo sites (n = 19) in East Texas with 10 or more 14 C dates. Summed probability distributions are then contrasted across river basins and natural regions with the remainder of the East Texas Caddo Radiocarbon Database (n = 338 dates from 132 other Caddo sites), highlighting the temporal and spatial character of Caddo archaeological sites throughout East Texas.
