Description: Functions are provided for prior specification in
        divergence time estimation using fossils as well as other kinds
        of data. It provides tools for interacting with the input and
        output of Bayesian platforms in evolutionary biology such as
        'BEAST2', 'MrBayes', 'RevBayes', or 'MCMCTree'. It Implements a
        simple measure similarity between probability density functions
        for comparing prior and posterior Bayesian densities, as well
        as code for calculating the combination of distributions using
        conflation of Hill (2008). Functions for estimating the
        origination time in collections of distributions using the
        x-intercept (e.g., Draper and Smith, 1998) and stratigraphic
        intervals (Marshall 2010) are also available. Hill, T. 2008.
