assemblage (ə-sěm'blĭj)

an artistic process in which a three-dimensional artistic composition is made from putting together found objects

also, a collection of artifacts from a single datable component of an archaeological site. Depending on the site and culture, an assemblage may be associated with a single limited activity, as with stone tools found at a butchering site, or may reflect a broad range of cultural life, as with artifacts found in a communal living site.
