#Load EUROEVOL Data
data(euroevol)
#Subset Danish Dates
denmark <- subset(euroevol,Country=="Denmark")
#Calibrate and Bin
denmarkDates <- calibrate(x=denmark$C14Age,errors=denmark$C14SD) 
denmarkBins <- binPrep(sites=denmark$SiteID,ages=denmark$C14Age,h=200) #200 years bin size
#Compute median date for each bin
binMed(x=denmarkDates,bins=denmarkBins)
## End(Not run)
