My artifact is a Mexican Bowl. We use the Mexican bowl to drink water. We also use it to serve traditional Mexican food. This Mexican bowl is also used as decorative too. In my home it has many purposes.My artifact comes from Puebla, Mexico. My grandma sent it to my family because we cherish everything she sends. Now we have Mexico closer since my family left Mexico. They did not have much from there expect memories from where they came from. People can learn a lot about my culture from this object. some things we can learn are resourceful because we use tree bark to make our own paint. Mexico is a very religious country, which still relates to Mother Nature. The dove means that our father God saved us and became a symbol.
