alien artifacts

Objects from beyond

Alien artifacts are objects supposedly created by extraterrestrial beings—the stuff of science fiction, UFO lore, and speculative archaeology.

The term appears in discussions of unexplained ancient structures, alleged crash debris, or fictional narratives: The warehouse held alien artifacts recovered from the crash site.

In video games and films, alien artifacts often possess mysterious powers or advanced technology beyond human understanding.
