Answer:
Anthropologists study the concept of culture and its relationship to human life in different times and places. They study other societies to gain a clearer perspective on our own. They study the past to help interpret the present.

Looking beyond the artifacts themselves can answer such a question.
The artifacts were found in burials with no indication that the tools
had been reused or worn out. Binford sees this phenomenon as a shift
from the manufacture of tools used to survive to artifacts with symbolic
meaning2
(221). With the appearance of non-tools with an unequal ratio
of use and manufacture, an indicator of population expansion occurs,
where certain individuals will require symbols of higher social rank.
Although merely a hypothesis, and the possibility that these socio-technic
items served as technomic tools as well, Binford’s systemic approach
is the beginning of explanation that can be furthered as archaeologists
continue to use all the data they have.
