A '''cultural artifact''' is a human-made [[wiktionary:object|object]] which gives information about the [[culture]] of its creator and users. The artifact may change over time in what it represents, how it appears and how and why it is used as the culture changes over time. The usage of the term encompasses the type of [[Artifact (archaeology)|archaeological artifact]] which is recovered at [[archaeological site]]s; however, man-made objects of modern society are also cultural artifacts. For example, in an anthropological context, a [[television]] is an artifact of modern culture.
