What do the artifacts tell us about the lives of early humans?

      The artifact that my group had was an interesting sculpture of two bison. The Sculpture was built in France, inside a deep cave, in a low room. Those sculptures were made from gold colored clay. Some scientists believe that these sculptures of the two bison could have been used from ceremonies that involved children turning into young adults. Certain scientists predict that these sculptures might have been built 10 - 14 thousand years ago. Scientists also believe that these bison sculptures showed that the cave belonged to a certain clan. What me and my group found interesting is that there were small footprints around the two bison sculptures.

     Another reason I think that artifacts tell us about the early humans is because if you look at some of the famous artifacts, they tell you a lot about what mind they where set in and what kind of lifestyles they had in the early humans time. They also tell us what type of tools they used to hunt and murder animals, some other artifacts also show what the women used to cook. I think that artifacts can show a lot of information of the early humans and that is why I like artifacts because you can get so much interesting and cool information out of just one artifact. 

     Sometimes I wonder what the people in the futures reaction will be like when they see the type of thing we are using right now. They will be thinking exactly what we are thinking. They would most probably want to ask a lot of questions like we want to right now. I think that artifacts are a great source to cite the past.
