Fossils are the remains of living things (plants, animals, people), not of things that were made.
Artifacts are the remains of things that were made, not the remains of living things.

Fossils are the remains of dinosaurs, prehistoric plants and other prehistoric creatures which lived millions of years ago. Artifacts are items that were made by intelligent homonids or by ourselves (homo sapiens) in the past not so long ago.
What is a fossil what is an artifact how can you tell?
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.
