This review is published in full in Antiquity 80 no. 309 September 2006. Here we publish a table of calibrated radiocarbon dates compiled by José Oliver.

This site with very early pottery is located in the wooded savannahs along the San Jacinto drainage in Colombia in South America. San Jacinto-1 came to be known as a special-purpose Archaic site exhibiting the second earliest known pottery assemblage in the New World, firmly dated to between 6940-5780 cal. BP (2σ). Its publication, by Oyuela-Caycedo & Bonzani (2005), is the subject of a review by José Oliver in the September 2006 issue of Antiquity (80: 739-31), who has compiled a table of radiocarbon dates, to accompany the review. Indeed he notes 'One drawback is that none of the radiocarbon dates cited are calibrated (Tables 1.1, 1.4) forcing the reader to do so, as I have done here'.
