I am trying to use Picklist from Primefaces. When the page is rendered, the javascript engine in Chrome cannot find Primefaces object. I get the following error 'Uncaught ReferenceError: PrimeFaces is not defined'. Am I missing to include any resource (js) in my .xhtml file? Please advise. Thanks.

PrimeFaces will auto-include the necessary JS/CSS resources in
<h:head>
.However, you don't have that tag. You've there a "plain HTML"
<head>
. Fix it accordingly:This mistake should also have been logged in the server log as below:
See also How to include another XHTML in XHTML using JSF 2.0 Facelets? and When to use <ui:include>, tag files, composite components and/or custom components? for various correct examples of authoring JSF/Facelets pages.
Unrelated to the concrete problem: PrimeFaces as being a jQuery based JSF component library already ships with jQuery and jQuery UI bundled. You should remove the manually included scripts from your page to avoid conflicts. See also Adding jQuery to PrimeFaces results in Uncaught TypeError over all place.
Take immediately the opportunity to replace that verbose
<link>
by a<h:outputStylesheet>
. See also How to reference CSS / JS / image resource in Facelets template?
