Answer 1

A. a non documentary source such as a photograph, painting, tool, or weapon

Step-by-step explanation:

The artifacts are non documentary sources. They are physical sources, made by human hands and not occurring naturally, witnessing about the lives of the humans in a particular period in the past at a particular place. The artifacts come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. They can be anything from tools and weapons, to pieces of art, or jewelry. Each of them is able to provide certain information about the past, and just about the daily lives of the humans but also about their mental capacity, their spirituality, their ideas etc.
