Description: Inspired by space-time regressions often performed to assess
    the expansion of the Neolithic from the Near East to Europe (Pinhasi et
    al. 2005 <doi:10.1371/journal.pbio.0030410>). Test for significant
    correlations between the (earliest) radiocarbon dates of archaeological
    sites and their respective distances from a hypothetical center of origin.
    Distances can be either great-circle or least-cost paths calculated from
    a friction surface. Both ordinary least squares (OLS) and reduced major
    axis (RMA) methods are supported (Russell et al. 2014
    <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0087854>). It is also possible to iterate over
    many sites to identify the most likely origin.
