  abstract = {{T}he evolutionary origins of the bacterial lineages that populate the human gut are unknown. {H}ere we show that multiple lineages of the predominant bacterial taxa in the gut arose via cospeciation with humans, chimpanzees, bonobos, and gorillas over the past 15 million years. {A}nalyses of strain-level bacterial diversity within hominid gut microbiomes revealed that clades of {B}acteroidaceae and {B}ifidobacteriaceae have been maintained exclusively within host lineages across hundreds of thousands of host generations. {D}ivergence times of these cospeciating gut bacteria are congruent with those of hominids, indicating that nuclear, mitochondrial, and gut bacterial genomes diversified in concert during hominid evolution. {T}his study identifies human gut bacteria descended from ancient symbionts that speciated simultaneously with humans and the {A}frican apes.},
