Abstract | Artefacts form an inseparable couple with humans. Their circulation among humans follows the principles of (artefact) inheritance; their formal variation is given by degrees of complexity, which is the basis of archaeological institutes determining social relations. The couple artefacts-humans is the basis of the Human World, an entity higher than Nature. Certain concepts valid in Nature, such as life and death, lose significance in the Human World. | | Keywords | Human World - (Cultural) inheritance - Degrees of complexity - Archaeological institutes | |
