Resumo
In this review, theoretical and methodological issues on recovering and analyxing DNA in archaeological and paleontological material (ancient DNA) are discussed. The discovery that DNA survives in ancient material, at least for less than 100,000 years, helped to solve many problems in evolutionary biology, ecology, epidemiology and archaeology. There have been an exponential growth in the number of papers dealing with this subject since the middle 1980’s, and an analysis of recent peer- review literature (1999-2003) revealed that around 38% of papers deal with animal and plant systematics and evolution, 2†% refers to human evolution and 13% to paleopathology (mainly in human diseases). The remaining papers are review (t%) and methodological (18%) papers.
