Description: Estimation of unknown historical or archaeological dates
        subject to relationships with other relative dates and absolute
        constraints, derived as marginal densities from the full joint
        conditional, using a two-stage Gibbs sampler with consistent
        batch means to assess convergence. Features reporting on Monte
        Carlo standard errors, as well as tools for rule-based
        estimation of dates of production and use of artifact types,
        aligning and checking relative sequences, and evaluating the
        impact of the omission of relative/absolute events upon one
        another. Collins-Elliott (2026) "eratosthenes: Synchronizing
        archaeological chronologies with a focus on artifact types"
