Where does the word artifact originate from?

The word "artifact" originates from the Latin words "ars" meaning "art" or "skill" and "factum" meaning "made".

Essentially, the word implies something "made by art or skill", which is why it's used to describe objects created by humans, especially those from past cultures or historical periods.
