Artifacts of Life

For many years, Native Americans complained about how white people buy and sell their ancestral religious artifacts. But now they are selling their artifacts for the first time and they are auctioning Indian art at Sotheby's on Friday.

"Cherokee Story: 13,000" won an award from the National Interpreters Association and was called "Museum Model" by Disney fantasy engineer Van Romans. In this exhibition we will talk about Cherokee's story and its lifetime in the South Appalachian Mountains using crafts, artwork, life-size characters and computer generated animation. I will introduce some of the information and artifacts in the exhibition. Cherokee's elders said they would live forever in the Appalachians - the Creator put them here and gave them their language and customs. Cultural assets have been occupied for more than 13000 years. In the last glacial age people used long spears to kill large animals and killed Mastodon as food. They also collected wild plants, nuts, fruits. These accounted for about 75% of the meals. Small groups move through the mountains every season. Leave only stone tools

Main job of occupation - find artifacts, then study life and culture of their ancient people. Archeology - part of the application story. Cultural relics are objects created or processed by humans, such as decorations, tools, tools, buildings, weapons, debris of ancient furnaces. Basic tools Archaeologist - GPR, knife, shovel, brush, pick, magnifying glass, syringe, camera. of course. In the case of underwater survey, skill of scuba diving is necessary. Each detected object needs to be explained in detail in writing. Equally important is the ability of art to describe all the items found. Because fresh air and sunlight can destroy decorations, we always repair and protect the main workpieces, it has been placed under thick soil for hundreds of years.

The diversity of cultural relics increased markedly about 50,000 years ago. In Africa, bone artifacts and first art appear in archeological records. The first evidence of human fisheries, brought about by regional relics such as the Blombos Cave in South Africa, has also drawn attention. Archaeologists classify relics from the past 50,000 years into various categories such as projectiles, sculpture tools, blades, drill tools. Human beings have gradually evolved from early human beings - like Homo · Habilis - using simple stone tools - to anatomical contemporary humans, and modern human beings about the behavior of the Paleolithic age. At the end of the Paleolithic era, especially during the Middle and Paleolithic era, humans began to produce the earliest works of art and began to take religious and spiritual actions such as burials and rituals.
