This research will focus on respiratory disease caused by poor air quality, a health problem that affects people today globally in both developed and developing countries. The 4th cataract region of Sudan provides a dataset of great potential for exploring how the health of a 'regional' population was affected by sociocultural and environmental factors across a long timeframe. Poor air quality compromises respiratory function today, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is the 4th leading global cause of death. However, there has been surprisingly little work on archaeological human remains that explores this subject for the past.

这项研究将重点关注由空气质量差引起的呼吸道疾病，这是一个影响当今全球发达国家和发展中国家人民的健康问题。苏丹第四白内障地区提供了一个具有巨大潜力的数据集，用于探索“区域”人口的健康如何在很长一段时间内受到社会文化和环境因素的影响。今天，空气质量差会影响呼吸功能，慢性阻塞性肺病是全球第四大死因。然而，令人惊讶的是，过去很少有关于考古人类遗骸的工作探讨这一主题。
