    Art on objects can mean that someone had the time to spend making it and was perhaps supported by others suggesting that some produced more food than they personally needed.


  2. artifact- an object remaining from another time or culture.

  3. an ARTIFACT or artefact is any object made or modified by a human culture, and often one later recovered by some archaeological endeavor. Examples include stone tools such as projectile points, pottery vessels, metal objects such as buttons or guns, and items of personal adornment such as jewellery and clothing. Other examples include bone that show signs of human modification, fire cracked rocks from a hearth or plant material used for food.Natural objects which have been moved but not changed by humans are called manuports. Examples would include seashells moved inland or rounded pebbles placed away from the water action that would have fashioned them.

  4. Artifacts are man made things, ranging from medallions to arrow heads to whatever else.
