Constraining absolute chronologies with the application of Bayesian analysis

In this work the application of Bayesian statistics to archaeological problems will be discussed. In particular, three case studies will be analyzed, each presenting complex interpretative scenarios, and the most suitable way to solve them. It will be shown that the Bayesian approach allows to refine a dating when in presence of multiple data, even from different dating techniques. The Bayesian approach is presented as the common language between physicists, archaeologists and statisticians to perform more accurate evaluations on stratigraphies and chronologies.
