My artifact is a ribbon I won at an Interscholastic Equestrian Association horse show last year. The horse show was on April Sixteenth, and took place in Centre Hall, Pennsylvania. The show was Western Zone Finals. For a rider to qualify for Zone Two Finals, they must acquire at least fifteen points in five or less horse shows. The Interscholastic Equestrian Association, also known as IEA, is for middle and high school students.…

This is evident through the implementation of rules that are attached to having an artifact, for instance, artifacts are not to be borrowed by others, each one is to be registered and accounted for (Condie 198) and only certain societal classes can own artifacts, Aberrations and Anomalies are forbidden (Condie 199). Furthermore, Cassia warns her brother when she says, “You saw what happened to Papa when the Officials got after him. You don’t want them getting mad at you for breaking the rules about artifacts” (Condie 116). When the Society uncovered from Em that Cassie let her borrow her compact, they decided to confiscate every artifact as seen in this quote: “The Government has decided that artifacts promote inequality among members of Society… We request that everyone turn in their artifacts for catalog and display at the Museum in each City” (Condie 204).…

My artifact is a communicator to the god “Saint Nick” it is used by hanging on the worshipers door so when he fly’s by that night he protects their house from evil spirits. I know this from kids having good dreams from saint Nick protecting them from evil spirits.

The third item is my bible. I am a Christian and my religion is important to me. When I was in my Junior and Senior in high school, I got an opportunity to teach Sunday School at my old church. The church was small and they thought that I can teach since I was old enough. Teaching Sunday School sparks an interest in teaching.…
Given that we can only guess and see one side of the story, all of the information we can get about artifacts are helpful. For instance, the most helpful thing to know is the name or title of the artifact and when it was given. Like with the Seal of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, knowing that it is a symbol of their colony shows how they viewed their interactions with the Native Americans. Mainly, due to their location, they were able to trade a lot of lumber, fur, fish,…
Why do people value a certain place or a belonging they own? I believe people value a place because it holds a very strong emotional connection and it changes how they normally act outside of this environment. Belongings are pretty simple usually, these things were given to you by a loved one or someone who is very significant in your life. I do not have a place that is meaningful to me…
Writing an object biography means looking at the object 's history, from the moment it was made to the moment it disappeared, or to the present if the object still exists. Object biographies are passive narratives, because objects are inherently inanimate. An object biography will consequently not look at what the object 'accomplished ' during its lifetime, but rather, how the surroundings of the object transformed it through time. A biography can thus concentrate on several themes, or several changes, that the object went through. These changes can be physical, such as the modification of the appearance of the object, or changes of location.…
"It 's a Beautiful Thing": Art, Culture, History and Humanity in George Orwell 's 1984 In 1984 George Orwell pulls readers into his horrific and at the same time awe- inspiring totalitarian society, dictated by a dystopian political system that builds a world on omnipresent surveillance, public manipulation, oppression, hatred, propaganda and "their sole motive, [which is] the quest for power" (Paul 215) . Due to the unconditional control the party has over Oceania, there is evidently a paucity of beauty, culture and history. Art plays a crucial part of humanity, history and our depiction of the truth.…

Should Museums Repatriate Ancient Artifacts to their Country of Origin? Ancient artifacts are the symbols of human civilization. All of them are priceless and cannot be measured by currency value. Repatriate is a controversial problem because of the various reasons. For instance, the aggressor took all of the captures back to their home countries and showed them to the public during the war.…
Archaeology is not just ‘digging’, although the excavation of artefacts is important, there are many more aspects involved that are all as significant.
