The abbreviation cal kyBP stands for "calibrated thousand years Before Present." It is commonly used in the fields of Archaeology and geology to refer to dates expressed in thousands of years before the year 1950, which is considered the reference date for radiocarbon dating. The "cal" indicates that the dates have been calibrated to account for variations in radiocarbon production and atmospheric conditions over time.
