Artifact: Artifacts are technologies that mimic something in nature and they also help
us extend our own nature which helps us do more things than our genes would
normally let us do. Pencils mimic sticks. Cavemen used sticks to draw/scratch on cave
walls or in the dirt. Pencils help us to keep our drawings or writings safe on paper.
Stick writing could easily be washed away by rain or fade from the elements. Pencils
also give you the ability to erase instead of crossing or scratching something out.
