I had a tendency to group all the dwarf related artifacts on that long, thin shelf nearest the library portion. With the big area, it might be best to stick all the minerals there. Yes, there are more minerals than spots, so you could subdivide into gemstones in one area and the other minerals that seem to have no use in game even as gifts into the bigger section.

Then try sticking all the bone artifacts on another table. Stick semi-trashlike artifacts (like Rusty Spur, Spoon, etc.) in another area. I think I stuck the elven ring over with the dwarf artifacts, because there was one spot left on the long table. I haven't completed the artifact achievement yet, but that's my advice.

Not sure if you know, but in case you don't, you can move already-placed items while you have the 'place new item' interface up. Helps with reorganizing if your initial plan doesn't work for you.


As for what I did, I have the 'natural' stuff on the bottom section (the largest one), with it roughly divided into one half for crystalline type things and the other for rock type things. Another section is for bones and fossils (including the slime), another is for archaeology artifacts (spoon, arrowhead, etc), another is for dwarf stuff (and those creepy dolls I think, but I can't remember for sure).
