Young's pH Miracle All-Natural Ionic Mineral Alkaline Bottled Drinking Water for all those who travel, who do not have a home water ionizer, to carry in the car or a back-pack, for food storage, to take during exercise, to take to the movies or the beach, and for emergencies.<br /><br />* * *<br /><br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water is bottled by a proprietary and FDA-approved water technology.<br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water consists of ionic calcium, ionic magnesium, ionic potassium, and trace amounts of ionic natrium.<br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water has one of the highest and most stable pH’s and ORP's of any bottled water in the world, with a stable pH ranging from 9 to 10 and an oxidative reduction potential (ORP) of -250mV.<br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water will reduce and reverse the acidity in our body by flushing out the acidic waste, therefore, behaving as an anti-oxidant effect, which helps protect our body from dietary and metabolic acids and the release offree radicals from white blood cells. The formation of acids (i.e. lactic, uric, carbonic acids, etc.) is created by a poor diet, metabolism, respiration, environmental pollution, and bodily stress.<br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water helps balance our body’s pH, therefore, reducing symptoms, such as, weight problems, allergies, arthritis, diabetes, osteoporosis, and helps in the prevention of any cancerous condition, etc.<br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water is micro-clustered water, which means that the molecular structure of the water is formed in such a way as to rapidly penetrate on the cellular level. pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water is more effectively absorbed on the cellular level than any other leading drinking water currently on the market.<br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water tastes better. A blind-taste test was performed, comparing the taste of the pH Miracle all-natural ionic mineral alkaline drinking water with eight (8) other leading brands. Almost two-thirds of the taste-testers from this blind-taste test chose our water as the best-tasting water.<br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water more readily absorbs into the body’s blood stream than any other drinking water, therefore, increasing circulation and hydration, which helps increase overall energy levels of the body.<br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water helps to neutralize the lactic acid build up in the muscles when performing strenuous work or exercise, therefore, reducing and eliminating aches and pains in the joints and muscles.<br /><br />Aches and pains are caused from a lack of circulation and alkaline hydration. Because pH Miracle water is so hydrating, it increases circulation, therefore, helping to relieve the acids that cause the body’s aches and pains.<br /><br />* * *<br /><br />There are two different kinds of alkaline drinking waters offered on the market today, as follows:<br /><br />The first kind of alkaline water is ionized water, which is electrically-charged water. Ionized water uses electrolysis (or an electric current) to break apart the molecules in the water in order to increase the pH. However, ionized water has hard (inactive) minerals in the water, which our body has a difficult time absorbing. Also, once the electric current is removed, the water eventually loses its electrical charge and reverts to its neutral state, therefore, rapidly diminishing the pH. Once the pH is diminished, ionized water is no different than tap water.<br /><br />* * *<br /><br />The second kind of alkaline water is pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water, which is ionic mineral water.<br /><br />pH Miracle ionic mineral alkaline drinking water doesn’t use an electric current, but it only uses electron-rich minerals (i.e. minerals in their ionic form) to raise the pH and lower the ORP.<br /><br />There are no hard (inactive) minerals in the pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water;<br /><br />• therefore, compared to ionized alkaline waters currently on the market,<br />• pH Miracle stablized alkaline electron-rich water has unique advantages that far exceed all other brands.<br /><br />* * *<br /><br />For more information please visit: www.phmiracleliving.com</div>

This paper presents a male, young-adult individual from the archaeological site of Amara West in northern Sudan (<em>c</em>. 1200BC) displaying multiple, mainly osteolytic, lesions on the vertebrae, ribs, sternum, clavicles, scapulae, pelvis, and humeral and femoral heads. Following radiographic, microscopic and scanning electron microscopic (SEM) imaging of the lesions, and a consideration of differential diagnoses, a diagnosis of metastatic carcinoma secondary to an unknown soft tissue cancer is suggested. This represents the earliest complete example in the world of a human who suffered metastatic cancer to date. The study further draws its strength from modern analytical techniques applied to differential diagnoses and the fact that it is firmly rooted within a well-documented archaeological and historical context, thus providing new insights into the history and antiquity of the disease as well as its underlying causes and progression.</div></div><h3 style="font-size: 18px;

Cancer’s global increase has largely been blamed on environmental and lifestyle related factors such as smoking, dietary constituents and pollution, as well as a longer life expectancy <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Boyle1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[1]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-WHO1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[2]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-David1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[3]</a>. While the world now finds itself in the 3<sup style="bottom: 1ex; position: relative; vertical-align: 0px;">rd</sup> epidemiological transition (the re-emergence of infectious diseases and new infections along with resistance to antibiotics), our human population has also experienced a transition to agriculturally based societies from hunting and gathering (1<sup style="bottom: 1ex; position: relative; vertical-align: 0px;">st</sup> transition).

Nevertheless, ancient medical documents indicate pathological conditions, tentatively identified as cancer, were known both to the Ancient Egyptians and Greeks <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Karpozilos1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[5]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Nunn1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[6]</a>.

It has also been highlighted that of all other species, humans are more likely to contract cancer because we live a lot longer, especially now, and humans are challenged with biologically adapting to rapidly changing factors that were introduced in the 1<sup style="bottom: 1ex; position: relative; vertical-align: 0px;">st</sup> and 2<sup style="bottom: 1ex; position: relative; vertical-align: 0px;">nd</sup> epidemiological transitions. These include a changing diet with high sugar and fat content, increased alcohol and tobacco consumption, and environmental pollutants. Furthermore, it has been noted that a genetic predisposition may increase a person’s risk of cancer <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Manderson1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[12]</a> and that pathogens can be important in the development of cancer. This has implications for the many co-morbidities seen today, but one of the key features of the 3<sup style="bottom: 1ex; position: relative; vertical-align: 0px;">rd</sup> epidemiological transition, an increase in infectious disease due to newly emerging and re-emerging infectious disease in combination with a resistance to antibiotic therapy (and cancer therapies), is particularly relevant for this paper <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Brown1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[13]</a>. Whilst understanding this evolutionary framework for cancer, and in spite of a long history of palaeopathological study of human remains globally <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Buikstra1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[14]</a>, the direct evidence of cancer from ancient human remains is still very rare. This remains the case despite the constantly growing number of remains available for study, and an increase in numbers of bioarchaeologists. This makes the rigorous study of early evidence for cancer particularly important if palaeopathology is to contribute to a better understanding of its evolution and increasing presence today.</div><a href="" id="article1.body1.sec1.p4" name="article1.body1.sec1.p4" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">While primary bone cancer is very rare even in modern populations, secondary skeletal involvement due to metastatic spread of a soft tissue cancer is very common <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Dorfman1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[15]</a>. Consequently, the dearth of evidence from ancient skeletons has led to the common conception that cancer was very rare in antiquity <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-David1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[3]</a>. This is usually explained by two main factors: shorter life spans and a healthier living environment. Even though the underlying pathological processes of cancer are still far from being fully understood, it is clear that mutations during growth and division of cells represent the initial step in cancer genesis <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Bertram1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[16]</a>. With increasing age, the risk of mutations naturally increases as the reproductive cycle of cells becomes more prone to error. Therefore, the more common types of malignant cancer, particularly those causing secondary bone involvement, show a predilection for older age ranges <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Greenspan1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[17]</a>. Prior to the onset of modern medical care and improved sanitary conditions, average life expectancies are assumed not to have exceeded 30-50 years due to infectious diseases <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Barrett1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[18]</a>. People in the past simply did not, in general live long enough to develop cancer<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Ortner1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[19]</a>. The rise in cancer prevalence today therefore is seen as a consequence the 2<sup style="bottom: 1ex; position: relative; vertical-align: 0px;">nd</sup>epidemiological transition when significantly higher life expectancies were experienced <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Franceschi1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[20]</a>. However, it has been recognised that this absence of old individuals in past populations may in fact be a misconception created by inadequate methods for accurately estimating adult age-at-death in human remains, particularly with regard to older age groups <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Cox1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[21]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Chamberlain1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[22]</a>.

Particularly if comprising lytic lesions, differentiation from other pathologies or post-depositional damage is not always possible upon macroscopic examination alone, and often requires additional analytical techniques such as radiography or SEM <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Brothwell1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[27]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Marks1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[28]</a>. Moreover, many palaeopathological reports of cancer derive from the early days of bioarchaeological research and diagnosis is often solely based on morphological appearance. Due to the often inadequate descriptions in publications, precluding a reliable re-evaluation of previous analyses, combined with the fact that many of these skeletons and mummies are not available for examination any more, the majority of these reports should be considered tentative at best <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Nerlich1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[29]</a>. Equally problematic is the fact that due to research and excavation strategies skeletal collections are often confined to skulls or selected pathological bones. Thus, in most early reports diagnosis is based on isolated skeletal elements, preventing an examination of the full range of pathological changes.</div><a href="" id="article1.body1.sec1.sec1.p2" name="article1.body1.sec1.sec1.p2" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">The earliest generally accepted example of a malignant neoplasm was reported in a Neolithic skeleton (<em>c.</em> 4000BC) from Austria displaying signs of multiple myeloma <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Strouhal1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[30]</a>.

The vast majority of palaeopathological evidence only dates to the past 500 years of human history, whereas evidence for cancer before modern era remains very sporadic <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Capasso1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[25]</a>,<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Strouhal2" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[33]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Strouhal3" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[34]</a>.

Based on tomb architecture and aspects of funerary ritual, this burial ground appears to have been used for the sub-elite population of the town <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Binder1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[51]</a>. In contrast, elite funerary monuments with pyramid superstructures are found in a second, contemporary, cemetery (D) on a desert escarpment to the north-west of the town <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Binder2" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[52]</a>. Tomb G244 is marked by a substantial burial mound (tumulus), representing a distinctive hallmark feature of indigenous Nubian funerary customs. In contrast, its internal layout, comprising of five large underground burial chambers used for multiple burials, is entirely Egyptian in nature and consistent with contemporary examples in Egypt proper. As such, the tomb’s architecture attests to a unique, hybrid culture which developed in Amara West and similar settlements over the course of several episodes of Pharaonic domination over Nubia <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Van1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[56]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Smith1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[57]</a>. Similar to the eight other burials in the first western chamber, individual 244-8 was buried extended, within a badly deteriorated painted wooden coffin, and provided with a faience scaraboid (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone-0090924-g002" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">Figure 2</a>). The position of the skeletal elements suggests tight wrapping of the burial. Although there is no evidence to suggest the elite status of the individual, funerary architecture and the grave good assemblage do indicate a certain degree of wealth of the individuals buried in this tomb.

All elements of the skeleton were investigated radiographically (Seifert Isovolt DS1 X-ray tube). Selected lesions were further examined using an digital microscope (DinoLite AM7013MT Premier) and through SEM (Hitachi S-3700N variable pressure scanning electron microscope).

The long bones and skull of the skeleton suffered little to moderate post-mortem breakage. In contrast, the elements of the axial skeleton are very friable and fragmentary due to the pathological conditions present, and are described below. Taphonomic damage, mainly due to salt precipitation from the surrounding soil, led to some erosion on the skull vault. A multitude of small round to oval-shaped osteolytic lesions ranging in size from between 3 and 30 mm in size are observable in the scapulae, clavicles, sternum, vertebrae and pelvis. In the skeletal elements with large amounts of cancellous bone, in particular the bodies of thoracic and lumbar vertebrae as well as the sacrum and pelvis, a high degree of fragmentation made detection and description of individual lesions difficult.</div><div class="figure" id="pone-0090924-g003" style="background-attachment: initial;

Upon radiographic examination, these lesions present themselves as a considerably larger sub-circular cavitation (9 mm). In addition, the radiograph shows a second clear circular lesion in the mid-shaft. Both scapulae display a multitude of round to irregular lesion. In the right scapula (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone-0090924-g005" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">Figure 5</a>) three irregular, ovoid (10×4 mm, 12×7 mm, 10×7 mm) lesions affected the inferior half of the scapular blade, accompanied by smaller, round ones (1–3 mm) along the medial and lateral edges. The left side also displayed a clear round lesion (Ø 8 mm) on the coracoid process, two more (Ø 6 mm) extra-articular lesions on the inferior side of the glenoid cavity and one large irregularly shaped lesion on the medial edge of the inferior angle (4×5 mm).The sternum was affected by some post-depositional damage, particularly on the visceral side, making differentiation of pathological lesions difficult. Upon radiographic examination at least seven sub-circular lesions (7–28 mm) were observed within the cancellous bone (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone-0090924-g006" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">Figure 6</a>). The left humeral head is intact, and several small post-depositional defects were present on the anterior side. The radiographic analysis of the left humeral head also revealed two distinctive radiotranslucent foci approximately 8 mm in diameter below the Glenoid joint surface and in the lesser trochanter.</div><div class="figure" id="pone-0090924-g004" style="background-attachment: initial;

The vertebral ends and shafts are similarly affected. Due to the high degree of post-depositional fragmentation of the ribs, the exact amount of pathological changes cannot be established with precision. The most conspicuous lesions were observed in the shafts of the first ribs. An elliptical lesion with ragged edges (9×4 mm) is present on the superior side of the left first rib shaft. On the inferior side, the lesion had not fully penetrated the surface, and only minuscule perforations are present. A small focus of reactive periosteal new bone formation is visible overlying the opening, representing the only lesion associated with periosteal new bone formation (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone-0090924-g007" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">Figure 7</a>).

Only the cervical vertebrae were sufficiently preserved, displaying three to five sub-circular lesions in the vertebral bodies (5–8 mm) and neural arches (2–3 mm). The thoracic and lumbar sections of the spine were the most affected parts of the entire skeleton. Damage was particularly extensive in the vertebral bodies, with discernible lesions ranging in size from between 5 and 12 mm.

Within the fragments, distinctive circular cavitations within the cancellous bone were observed in the better preserved iliac crest and ischial tuberosity of both sides. Circular erosions were also present on the inner cortical side of the fragments of the iliac blades even though, due to heavy fragmentation, it is difficult to ascertain whether they are due to pathology or post-mortem damage. Formation of new bone within the trabecular structures was observed in one lesion in the right iliac crest (Ø 6.5 mm) (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone-0090924-g011" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">Figure 11</a>) and one in the right ischium (Ø 7.5 mm). Despite post-mortem damage, several cavitations were observed on the femoral heads, with the right one displaying 7 cortical defects (5–8 mm) and a lesion on the anterior side of the greater trochanter (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone-0090924-g012" style="color: #3c63af;

Bone tissue is one of the preferential sites for metastatic expansion <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Resnick1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[63]</a>. Tumor cells spread to the bones either through direct extension of a primary soft tissue tumor, through the lymphatic system, cerebro-spinal fluid or most importantly through haematogenous dissemination. Thus, predilected sites for metastasis formation are those bone structures rich in haematopoietic bone marrow and the vertebrae, pelvis, ribs, sternum, skull, clavicles, scapulae, humeral and femoral heads (in decreasing order of frequency) are the most commonly affected elements <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Resnick1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[63]</a>. The elements distal to the elbow and knee are generally very rarely involved <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Greenspan1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[17]</a>.</div><a href="" id="article1.body1.sec4.sec1.p2" name="article1.body1.sec4.sec1.p2" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Skeletal response to metastatic tumours can either be osteolytic (75%), osteoblastic (15%) or a combination of both (10%) <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Greenspan1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[17]</a>. The type, distribution and density of metastatic lesions are dependent on the primary source of the tumour as well as on the duration of the disease. Carcinomas with purely osteolytic lesions are those of the thyroid, kidneys, adrenal glands, uterus and gastrointestinal tract. Exclusively osteosclerotic lesions are produced by carcinoma of the prostate gland. Mixed lesions can occur in carcinomas of the lung, breast, cervix, ovaries and testicles, though the ratio of formation to resorption is highly variable. However, none of these patterns is without exception <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Resnick1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[63]</a>. In osteolytic lesions, bone resorption due to growth of tumour cells commences in cancellous bone characterised by internal scalloping. Only in advanced stages does destruction progress into the cortical bone <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Ortner1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[19]</a>. The resulting lesions can vary considerably both in size and shape. Depending on the aggressiveness of the disease process, they can range between well circumscribed (geographic) to poorly defined (motheaten or permeative) bone destruction, the latter reflecting a more aggressive type <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Resnick1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[63]</a>,<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Rothschild1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[64]</a>. Due to the mechanism of metastasis formation, the number and size of lesions visible upon radiographic examination usually exceeds the number of lesions visible externally, making the radiographic appearance of lesions one of the key differential diagnostic features of metastatic carcinoma <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Rothschild1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[64]</a>.

Originating in the haematopoietic marrow and cancellous structures of bone, multiple myeloma produces numerous destructive lesions that can be very similar to those caused by a carcinoma type cancer <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Rothschild1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[64]</a>. Differentiating between multiple myeloma and metastatic carcinoma in dry bone is considered a major challenge and may not always be possible <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Ortner1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[19]</a>,<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Marks1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[28]</a>.The main differential diagnostic features are size and shape of the lesions. In contrast to metastatic carcinoma, the lesions are usually small, uniform in size, spherical with effaced edges, and are much denser and regular in distribution than carcinoma lesions. Suppressed osteoblast formation in tumorous foci is one of the hallmark pathophysiological features of multiple myeloma <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Yaccoby1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[65]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Sezer1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[66]</a>. Therefore, remodelling along the edges of lesions or new bone formation as is seen in the individual from Amara West is absent in multiple myeloma. <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Rothschild1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[64]</a>.</div><h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Mycosis</h4><a href="" id="article1.body1.sec4.sec3.p1" name="article1.body1.sec4.sec3.p1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Several fungal infections can produce lytic lesions in the skeleton which may mimic the appearance of metastatic carcinoma <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Hershkovitz1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[67]</a> even though, with the exception of African histoplasmosis, skeletal involvement is generally rare [43: 217]. Bone infection occurs secondary to haematogenous dissemination. Skeletal lesions caused are almost exclusively lytic in nature with only little new bone formation [43: 213]. Key features in differentiating between metastatic carcinoma and fungal infections are the appearance of the lytic lesions and bone remodelling. In mycoses lytic lesions appear as fronts of resorption, in contrast to the space-occupying lesions produced by bone metastases. Newly formed bone is rare in fungal infections but if present it usually appears as characteristic blunt spiculae <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Hershkovitz1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[67]</a>. In contrast to metastatic carcinoma, skeletal lesions produced by mycotic infections occur throughout the skeleton and also affects the distal portions of the long bones and small hands of the hand and feet. The lesions observed in the individual from Amara West do not conform to the features associated with fungal infection, thus leaving it an unlikely differential diagnosis.</div><h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Taphonomic damage</h4><a href="" id="article1.body1.sec4.sec4.p1" name="article1.body1.sec4.sec4.p1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Post-depositional processes could also produce damage to the bone mimicking the osteolytic lesions caused by a tumour <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Brothwell1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[27]</a>. Breakage and surface erosion are generally common problems in archaeological human remains. Small round holes similar to metastatic lesions can be caused by a variety of factors including roots, water, and termites <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Huchet1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[68]</a> or dermatid beetles <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Huchet2" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[69]</a>. While root or water damage is uncommon at Amara West, destruction likely caused by osteophageous insects is frequently encountered (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone-0090924-g013" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">Figure 13</a>). However, even though these holes may appear similar on the bone surface, they do not expand within the bone but rather appear to be regular punched out tunnels through the entire bone. In addition, insects do not show any preference for particular elements but, if present, tend to affect all parts of the skeleton. Further supporting evidence was obtained through targeted SEM analyses in order to better characterise the nature of the lesion margins. While in some examined lesions, post-mortem damage was established as the cause (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone-0090924-g014" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">Figure 14a</a>), others show clear evidence of osteoclastic activity (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone-0090924-g014" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">Figure 14b</a>). Therefore, even though some post-mortem damage is certainly present in the bones of Sk244-8, the radiographic appearance of the lesions, in combination with the observation of associated periosteal new bone formation, provides sufficient evidence to confirm that the majority of the observed lesions are indeed of pathological origin.</div><div class="figure" id="pone-0090924-g013" style="background-attachment: initial;

The irregularly distributed lesions of varying shape and size as well as their subcortical appearance, strongly argue against ascribing them to multiple myeloma. The origin of the metastases, i.e. the primary tumour location, is not possible to ascertain. Based on the examination of dry bone alone, the origin of the metastases and the location of the primary tumour is difficult to ascertain, if not impossible <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Ortner1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[19]</a>. Generally, organ cancers most commonly producing bone involvement are those of the breast and the prostate gland, followed by the lung, thyroid gland and kidneys <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Layer1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[70]</a>.

The apparent absence of cancer in archaeological remains may also partly be an illusion created by issues of bone preservation, and due to the fact that methods of analysis are inadequate to detect initial changes within bone. Due to financial, time and logistical reasons, human remains are usually not systematically radiographed, and bone metastases originating in cancellous tissue only penetrate the bone surface in their advanced stages. If the immune system was already compromised by other negative influences in a person’s life, people may not have survived long enough to develop full skeletal metastases. Thus, evidence for a large proportion of tumours could be missed when skeletal remains are analysed <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Rothschild2" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[72]</a>. Another challenge in detecting cancer in ancient human remains is the poor preservation of bone which often prevents the clear identification of lytic lesions and precludes the diagnosis of incomplete remains <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Brothwell1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[27]</a>. With increasing numbers of skeletal collections and more detailed analysis, as well as more readily available standard radiographic equipment, the evidence for cancer in antiquity could increase significantly.</div><a href="" id="article1.body1.sec4.sec5.p2" name="article1.body1.sec4.sec5.p2" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Recovered as part of an archaeological research project, this individual can be set within a cultural and historical framework, but also within the context of changing environmental conditions, and specific diet and subsistence strategies. The potential exists, therefore, to explore possible underlying causes of cancer in an ancient population, before the onset of modernity. As such it could provide important new insights into cancer aetiology and epidemiology in the past. Even though today’s leading causes of cancer are all products of modern living conditions and industrialisation, a large number of environmental carcinogens also occur naturally (e.g. asbestos), and would have affected our ancestors in the same way<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Hueper1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[73]</a>.

In modern Sudan, the common usage of fires in poorly ventilated rooms of small mudbrick huts is still considered one of the major factors leading to lung cancer <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Awadelkarim1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[75]</a>; similar conditions are common across early societies, including those where other evidence of cancer has been identified <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Capasso1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[25]</a>.

In addition, it has been associated with an increased risk of male breast cancer as a consequence of the hormonal disturbances resulting from liver cirrhosis secondary to schistosomiasis infection <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Buzdar1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[82]</a>. This may also account for the fact that the male to female breast cancer ratio in Egypt today is far greater than anywhere else in the world <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Mustacchi1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[83]</a>. Detecting evidence for schistosomiasis infection in ancient human remains can be achieved through immunobiological testing of mummified soft tissue <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Hibbs1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[84]</a> or secondary through recovery of parasite eggs from soil samples from graves or latrines as well as from coprolites <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Bouchet1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[78]</a>. Despite attempts to find parasite evidence in a selected number of soil samples from other graves, no such evidence has yet been identified at Amara West. Even though the disease is absent from the Amara West area today, palaeoenvironmental data suggests that the habitat would likely have been favourable for sustaining populations of gastropods transmitting schistosomiasis during the time of New Kingdom occupation. Though unproven, an underlying schistosomiasis infection leading to breast cancer in the man from Amara West as well as other Nubian and Egyptian individuals <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Esche1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[46]</a> represents a plausible cause. The link between gastrointestinal cancer and infection by <em>helicobacter pylori</em>, which is recognized to have affected human populations since prehistory <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Linz1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[85]</a> is also well established <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Polk1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[86]</a>. The individual from Amara West, only 25–35 years old at death, further underlines that cancer was restricted to neither old age nor elite social status. From a modern clinical point of view, the young age-at-death of the man from Amara West may seem unusual for the onset of skeletal metastases, but it remains unknown whether the underlying causes of cancer affected people in the same way and at the same speed as they do today.</div><a href="" id="article1.body1.sec4.sec5.p4" name="article1.body1.sec4.sec5.p4" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">The lack of evidence for cancer in antiquity may to a large extent, be the result of reduced life expectancy, and thus less time to develop skeletal lesions if the immune system is already compromised by an inadequate supply of nutrients and diseases. This represents one of the major problems in inferring the absence or presence of disease in the past in general <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Wood1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[87]</a>. The archaeological and historical record certainly provides plenty of evidence for possible causes of developing cancer. Despite recent advances, the genetic background for cancer predisposition is still far from being understood today <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Bartsch1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[88]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Frank1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[89]</a>. Even though it may perhaps remain unknown, there is no reason to assume that predisposing genetic factors were not present in the past. The man from Amara West does indicate that it was indeed possible to develop skeletal lesions of cancer, provides a glimpse into one individual’s life experience, and cautions against claims for the absence, or presence, of any disease based on skeletal evidence alone.</div></1></div></div><div class="section" id="section5" style="margin-bottom: 40px;"><a href="" id="s5" name="s5" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;" title="Conclusions" toc="s5"></a><h3 style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.222; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Conclusions</h3><a href="" id="article1.body1.sec5.p1" name="article1.body1.sec5.p1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Dating to <em>c</em>. 1200 BC, the individual from Amara West in Sudan represents one of the earliest people identified in the bioarchaeological record anywhere in the world, who suffered secondary malignant neoplasm. This provides further support for the claim that cancer is a disease of considerable antiquity. It may not have been as prevalent as today, and there is little doubt that the main factor accounting for the increased prevalence of cancer is undoubtedly modern living. Environmental carcinogens deriving from wood smoke (amongst others) have been present in the human living environment for a long time, yet cancer is still very rare in the palaeopathological record. However, with increasing numbers of human remains available for study, and technical advances and better availability of analytical equipment, in combination with increased attention to detail by those conducting palaeopathological research the number of ancient individuals with cancer may increase significantly. Increasing scientific research on mummified remains facilitated through improved and more readily available imaging techniques such as computed tomography-scanning, will provide an additional dataset, allowing for detection of cancer in the soft tissues of preserved bodies. Gaining a better understanding of the disease’s history and epidemiology in the past may significantly contribute to further investigate and understand the underlying mechanisms leading to cancer today.</div><a href="" id="article1.body1.sec5.p2" name="article1.body1.sec5.p2" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Increasingly, scholars working in palaeopathology are thinking more about the value of using their data to contribute to knowledge of disease today <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Zuckerman1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[90]</a>.

For example, by using biomolecular approaches to individual skeletons and mummies with evidence of cancer (ancient DNA analysis), it might be possible to show changes in their genome which can be mapped against the very evolution of the human population, and detect mutations in specific genes that are known to be associated with particular types of cancer. In turn, and by linking these data to contextual considerations i.e. the living environment that the person experienced, it may be possible to understand better why and in what ways cancer therapies need to be developed. Furthermore, exploring the reasons for a population’s susceptibility to developing cancer may be aided by examining the nature of the immune system of peoples affected by cancer in the past, via biomolecular analysis, to see how cancer may have changed throughout the long history of evolution. Research in these areas <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Fornaciari1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[91]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0090924#pone.0090924-Schlott1" style="color: #3c63af; text-decoration: none;">[92]</a> has indicated the potential for this approach.
