摘要
基于基因组中不仅存在着现在能够编码的基因,而且存在着大量非编码DNA序列的事实,作者认为:一个基因组中的基因和非编码DNA序列共同保留着该物种所经历的进化事件、外在环境的变迁和内在结构与功能的演变的信息。发明出适当的科学方法,就可以将这些信息逐步破译出来,从而创建一门不同于化石考古学和古分子考古学的基因组考古学新学科。
Based on the fact that in the genome there are genes which can code for RNAs and numerous non-coding DNAs,the authors consider that：both genes and non-coding DNAs of a species＇ genome contain the information of（a）evolution events that species underwent,（b）changes of the environment,（c）shifts of the organism＇s structure and function.These information can be decoded from genome if some proper approaches are devised,thus gives rise to genome archaeology,a new discipline which is completely different from fossil archaeology and ancient DNA archaeology.
