I'll give away 15 points and mark brainliest. Find 10 artifacts ( photos, commercial, videos etc...) from current events (the last 5-10 years) and discuss their connection to ideas, laws, concepts about the civil war and Discuss their connections to ideas, laws, concepts etc... of the civil war and the Reconstruction. Make sure to explain what the artifact in 2-3 sentences and explain how the artifact you chose is connected to the civil war or reconstruction in 3 sentences. I'll drop an example from my teacher below. I really hope you can help me

German submarine (Chicago)

When you think about naval warfare in World War II, you typically don't associate it with the City of Big Shoulders.

But a 1944 operation that led to the capture of the German submarine U-505 -- the first open sea capture by the U.S. Navy of an enemy warship since the War of 1812 -- was led by Chicago native Capt. Daniel Gallery.

Years after the war, when the sub was going to be scrapped, Gallery stepped forward and helped facilitate a move to the Museum of Science and Industry in his hometown.

Since Chicago is absolutely devoid of oceanside property, it took five months for the U-505 to be towed from Portsmouth, New Hampshire, in 1954.

The sub is now exhibited in an underground hall and also serves as a war memorial.

Viking coin (Maine)

In 1957, an unusual coin was found by amateur archaeologist Guy Mellgren during a dig of a Native American village site in Maine.

Two decades later, a coin dealer identified the small silver coin not as Native American, but as Norse.

Did the subjects of Norwegian King Olaf Kyrre visit Maine during the 11th century?

Probably not, but there may have been trade between eastern native tribes that brought the coin south.

Some consider the discovery a hoax, but at the Maine State Museum in Augusta, where the "Maine Penny" is in the collection, chief archaeologist Bruce Bourque says, "Several reliable lines of evidence suggest that it is an authentic find."

Adolf Hitler's telephone, typewriter, more

Closing in on Nazi Germany in 1944-45, American and allied forces came away with a number of personal items belonging to the German high command.

Taken from Adolf Hitler's personal library, the German leader's phone can now be found at the Army Signal Corps Museum at Fort Gordon, Georgia.

The phone isn't the only Hitler possession to have shown up in the United States.

The Bessemer Hall of History Museum in Alabama claims to have Hitler's typewriter (or, at least, a typewriter taken from Hitler's mountain Eagle's Nest) in its collection.

Eighty miles away, the Berman Museum of World History in Anniston, Alabama, features Hitler's silver tea service.
