Several new Harnack estimates for positive solutions of the heat equation on a complete Riemannian manifold with Ricci curvature bounded below by a positive (or a negative) constant are established. These estimates are sharp both for small time, for large time and for large distance, and lead to new estimates for the heat kernel of a manifold with Ricci curvature bounded below
