There are lawspreventing the sale of theseartifacts, too.

Discover ArtifactsArtifacts are everyday things made or used by humans and are found where people used to liveand work. There are many kinds of artifacts, such as tools, containers, toys, decorations, oranything else a person might use. Archaeologists study artifacts to learn more about the peoplewho made these objects and what happened in the past.Studying pieces of pottery, known as sherds, can tell archaeologists about what people ate andhow they cooked or stored food. They can also examine flakes, the bits of rock that are createdwhen making stone tools, to figure out how people made tools like arrowheads and spearheads.Studying different kinds of containers like baskets, pottery, bottles, and tin cans can tellarchaeologists about when people moved to that area and the kinds of activities they were doing,such as ranching or farming.

Discover Stone ToolsHumans have made many different kinds of stone tools by flint knapping. Flint knapping is theprocess of breaking down bigger rocks into stone tools, like arrowheads, spearheads, scrapers, andcutters. These tools come in many different shapes and sizes. The shape and size of stone tools cantell archaeologists about what they were used for, such as hunting or cutting, the age of the tool, andabout the people who made the tools. The type of rock used can also tell archaeologists about tradefor materials, like obsidian or flint.Connect the dots to make your own stone tools:Did you know?People flint knapped more than just tools. TheOfficial California State Prehistoric Artifact is astone artifact interpreted to look like a bear. It wasmade by prehistoric Californian Native Americansaround 7,000 to 8,000 years ago!

Discover Your Own Artifact ModelThe groundstone axe below was found on Assateague Island National Seashore in Maryland. The lastten pages of this booklet can be cut out as plans to trace onto cardboard, which you can cut out andglue together to make a cardboard model of the axe. Make sure children get the help of an adult whencutting out the plans or cutting the cardboard. View the axe as a digital 3D model on Sketchfab.Watch a quick animation showing the process of gluing the cardboard model together.Why do you think archaeologists might use models while studying an artifact?Created by B.K.
