CalibETH: An Interactive Computer Program for the Calibration of Radiocarbon Dates

Abstract

A computer program for convenient calibration of radiocarbon dates has been developed. The program has a simple user interface, which includes pull-down menus, windows and mouse support. All important information, such as calibration curves, probability density function and results, in text form, are displayed on the screen and easily can be rearranged by the user. Two versions of CalibETH, one for an IBM-PC and one for the Macintosh, are available. CalibETH runs under the graphics interface, GEM, from Digital Research, on an IBM PC.
