Abstract
Lane-Fox (1906) rightly says that material culture is the outward sign and symbols of particular ideas in the mind and symbols according to Geertz obtain meaning from the role which they play in the patterned behavior of social life. The material culture is not only concerned with what uses people put objects to and that objects do for people (Woodward, 2007) but they also play a symbolic role to signify the specific sphere of cultural context and users intention by allowing them to assign meaning within their culture frame. Furthermore, objects became incorporated into and represent; wider discourses related to extensively held norms and values enshrined in social institution.
