Abstract

Love (2018) misunderstands some concepts of Bayesian analysis and the data from Naranjo and Urías. The cross-dating of El Ujuxte needs to be reevaluated with the publication of its ceramic data.

Love (2018) malinterpreta algunos conceptos del análisis bayesiano y los datos de Naranjo y Urías. Es necesario evaluar el fechamiento relativo de El Ujuxte con publicaciones de sus datos cerámicos.
