Definition:
A relic holds significance because it carries traces of another time. It may be worn, chipped, or fragile, yet those marks only deepen its meaning. People preserve relics to safeguard memory, history, or belief. Even the smallest relic can evoke strong emotion when tied to a story or tradition. The word suggests a link between the present and what came before.
