Abstract

 

The human microbiome has recently become a valuable source of information about host life and health. Here, we shed light on the evolution experienced by the oral microbiome during this transition, comparing Palaeolithic hunter-gatherers with Neolithic and Copper Age farmers that populated a same restricted area in Italy.

 

Resumen del artículo

 

A través del estudio del ADN antiguo contenido en placa dental de restos humanos del Paleolítico y del Neolítico se observa cómo el cambio de dieta que produjo el paso de una vida nómada a una sedentaria, con predominio de la actividad agrícola, generó también un cambio en la microbiota de las personas.
