Select an artifact or image created in 1000–1300 C.E. using an academic resources, such as a museum or library website. Artifacts can include written works, laws, codes, buildings, maps, art, rituals, dance, holidays, and so on; for this exercise if your choice is not tangible itself, be sure to include a weblink or textbook page number for a related physical relic. Your answer should explain how your chosen artifact (and relic) reflects the character of this period. Support your insight with at least one example of a connection to a specific political, economic, or religious development to which it relates.
