An international team led by scientists from the University of Dublin has discovered traces of sheep pox virus DNA in the parchment of historical manuscripts, including the roughly 1,000-year-old York Gospels. Analysis of the manuscripts and teeth from Bronze Age sheep showed that the virus infected animals more than 3,700 years ago. Traces were also found in parchment made from calf and goat skins. The researchers believe that the preservation of its genetic material over thousands of years could help shed light on the virus’s evolution, spread and control, while the disease continues to threaten livestock.
