critical questions

1. If something is made by human hands is it ever really considered "natural" or just a representation of nature through art? And is it a museums responsibility to really teach all aspects of a society and culture, or is just a representation that needs further explanation by a teacher and parents? Although I believe that it is always best to tell all sides of a story especially if someone other than that society is doing the representation, I believe that it is difficult especially if your country was shaped through their own representation of themselves in history.

2. Would Society exist without authority and hierarchy of some sort? traditions may be good or bad but without them what would be in their place to shape society?
