What couldn't be a cultural artifact?

In: Archaeology [Edit categories]

Answer:

Eco-facts are not cultural artifacts but do enrich our understanding of past cultures. These include soils, sediments, animal and plant remains. However, if an object like a animal bone has been altered it is no longer an ecofact, it is an artifact. Human alteration is what causes the change in definition.
