| description | A review of the literature regarding the origin of syphilis in light of paleopathological diagnosis & interpretation strongly suggests a New World origin. Whereas the evidence for pre-Columbian treponematosis in the Old World is documentary & equivocal, abundant skeletal evidence indicates the presence of a nonvenereal form of treponemal infection in the Americas before Christopher Columbus's arrival. Comparisons are made to the contemporary epidemic of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS).
