Ancient Bacteria and Their Role in Human Evolution and Health
Introduction
The study of ancient bacteria found in archaeological and anthropological contexts has revealed significant insights into human evolution, the microbes that co-evolved with humans, and modern human health. Advances in molecular biology, particularly DNA sequencing and Polymerase Chain Reaction study [2], have enabled researchers to recover and analyze bacterial DNA from ancient human remains, providing valuable information about past diseases, environmental conditions, and microbial evolution. These studies are revolutionizing our understanding of both human and microbial histories, linking evolutionary events to the microbial world.
