Talk:Matthew C. Perry's Box/@comment-5782071-20190401221343/@comment-24588058-20190401232127

See, I always figured that some are easier to store in boxes for display/safe keeping, and unless the tag mentioned the container it was in, the container wasn't part of the artifact. Likewise, in the case of Matthew Perry's Box, the box itself is the artifact.

I also thought that many of the shipping crates in the Warehouse were artifacts that simply hadn't been taken out and placed on shelves due to lack of free personnel (who had enough free time to go through artifacts already collected). I mean, it seems like Leena was the only really active shelver when she was alive (probably, in part, because of her ability to easily place artifacts and keep the Warehouse aura balanced), and really ever since her death, there hasn't been much active shelving (that we've seen; some artifacts might be easy, whereas the more difficult ones would be placed in the Ovoid Quarantine to be sorted later - we know that happened with the Norge Porthole, as it was stated to have been collected years before it's being placed on a shelf).
