Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Latin 'ars' (art, skill) combined with 'factum' (something made, from 'facere', to do or make). Entering English in the late 19th century, the term initially referred to anything made by human workmanship, particularly simple prehistoric tools, before expanding to include digital and cognitive phenomena.
