[QUOTE="philologus_1, post: 7394350, member: 92212"]Awesome fossils posted here! I find them fascinating! Ditto with meteorites and other extra-planetary matter that finds itself to the earth's surface (such as moon rocks)! I collect mostly ancient coins, but I also have several meteorites, several fossils, and many artifacts of various kinds. I enjoy and appreciate them all! :) However... don't hate me... but just to avoid confusion in the minds (and vocabularies) of those who find their way to CoinTalk... and so that we speak accurately to our friends & families about the items in our collections... ...a meteorite is neither a fossil nor an artifact, and... ...a fossil is neither an artifact nor a meteorite, and... ...an artifact is neither a fossil nor a meteroite, and... ...an ancient coin is a type of artifact. Below are multiple definitions of the word "artifact". Note that the common denominator of the definitions is the inclusion of the word human.
