Archaeologists study artifacts left behind by ancient civilizations or early humans to understand various aspects of their lives, including their culture, technology, social structure and way of living. The information gathered from artifacts such as tools, pottery, art, structures and other objects helps archaeologists draw conclusions about past societies, their practices, and their interactions with their environment. In the depicted table or any archaeological analysis, artifacts play a fundamental role in shaping conclusions about the lifestyles and behaviors of ancient peoples.
