The idea of dark matter arose to explain gravitational effects observed in galaxies and clusters of galaxies. However, studies of the early universe (especially the cosmic microwave background and of chemical abundances) also tell us something about dark matter. What do they tell us?
They add further support to the idea that dark matter really exists and is made of non-ordinary (nonbaryonic) matter, such as WIMPs

cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation
Isotropic microwave radiation from every direction in the sky having a 2.73-kelvin (K) blackbody spectrum. The CMB is residual radiation from the Big Bang.

The cosmic microwave background refers to
The leftover radiation from the Big Bang, last emitted at the end of the era of nuclei, and redshifted into the microwave part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation
the cooled remnant of the hot big bang that fills the entire universe and can be observed today with an average temperature of about 2.725 kelvin

The cosmic microwave background is the highly redshifted radiation of the early Big Bang.
Cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB)
The CMB is electromagnetic radiation in the microwave region that fills the universe. It has a blackbody spectrum corresponding to a temperature of about 2.7K. It is the remnant of the high temperatures at the time of the Big Bang and provided one of the strongest pieces of evidence in favor of the Big Band model.
