Archaeologists Uncover a Previously Unknown Effect of Tobacco

ALWAYS WITH YOU –

Nov. 2, 2024 – Archaeologists have uncovered a previously unknown effect of tobacco on the human body, shedding new light on the long-term consequences of smoking. This surprising ancient discovery has far-reaching implications for our understanding of historical tobacco use and its impact on human health.

By examining the cortical bone tissue, which forms the dense outer layer of bones, scientists identified significant differences between the skeletons of individuals who had no access to tobacco and those who likely consumed it after its introduction.

This groundbreaking research provides archaeologists with a powerful new tool for identifying tobacco use in ancient populations, even in the absence of dental evidence or other visible signs. The revolutionary detection method could revolutionize our understanding of historical social and health practices.
