Ancient people had far different microorganisms in their guts than modern humans
Only an anthropologist would treasure millennia-old human feces found in dry caves. Just ask Dr. Meradeth Snow, a University of Montana researcher and co-chair of UM s Department of Anthropology.
She is part of an international team, led by the Harvard Medical School-affiliated Joslin Diabetes Center, that used human paleofeces to discover that ancient people had far different microorganisms living in their guts than we do in modern times.
Snow said studying the gut microbes found in the ancient fecal material may offer clues to combat diseases like diabetes that afflict people living in today s industrialized societies.
The Gut Microbiome Was More Diverse in Ancient People
What can we learn from a specimen of ancient poo? A lot, it turns out. Scientists have now reported their findings from an analysis of thousand-year-old human paleofeces in
Nature. The work revealed that ancient people had far more diverse microbial species in their guts compared to modern humans. This work may help researchers learn more about diseases that are more prevalent in industrial societies. We need to have some specific microorganisms in the right ratios for our bodies to operate effectively, said study co-author Dr. Meradeth Snow, co-chair of the University of Montana s Department of Anthropology. It s a symbiotic relationship. But when we study people today - anywhere on the planet - we know that their gut microbiomes have been influenced by our modern world, either through diet, chemicals, antibiotics, or a host of other things. So understanding what the gut microbiome looked like before industrialization happ
