People. An artifact is an object from an archaeological site that shows signs of human manipulation. For example, a charred bone from a hearth would not be an artifact; it was simply the remnants of an ancient meal. However, if the bone has been carved--perhaps using a burin--into a fish hook, then it becomes an artifact.
