Artifacts and fissils are more different than the same. Fossils are the result of parts of dead plants or animals being replaced by minerals over the course of millions of years. Artifacts are things people have made and lost or discarded a hundred years ago or as long ago as tens of thousands of years ago. The primary similarity between the two kinds of objects is that we usually dig them out of the ground and clean them up to study or to display in museums.

How do archeologists learn about the past?
They take an estimate on how old the fossil, artifact is then they examine it to tell where the artifact was made, if it is a fossil then tell what ancient creature it is then they can tell what era that creature was from. If it is an unknown fossil they give it a name, but the only way to learn about the past is to decipher hieroglyphics or examine and try to tell what the story on the walls inside the tombs, pyramids, and ancient monuments. I hope you like this answer. :)
