摘要：Recent archaeological survey on the island of Carriacou in the West Indies revealed numerous sites that were heavily eroding and under threat of destruction by visitors, looters, or developers. In an attempt to record these rapidly disappearing sites and provide the first chronology for the island's prehistory, we collected samples for radiocarbon dating from the Sabazan site on the eastern coast. Results suggest that the site was occupied intensively from about AD 700-1130. These dates compare well with the only other dates from Carriacou and nearby Union, indicating a strong post-Saladoid presence in the Grenadines
