Ancient"Ancient" is most commonly used to describe something that dates from a long time past in historical or archaeological terms. This would be the most accurate way to describe an artifact from the 12th century. "Aged" is most often used in the case of things that are purposefully brought to their point of maturity, such as wine and cheese. "Geriatric" is a word that refers to the elderly, while "old" describes any item that has existed for a long time, or that cannot be called "new" any longer.

b. ancientExplanation: Although all of these words have very similar meanings, they are not exactly the same. Therefore, they are not interchangeable. "Aged" refers to something that has been left on purpose so that it becomes improved as time passes. "Ancient" refers to something that comes from the far past. "Geriatric" refers to something related to the elderly, while "old" refers to something that is showing signs of use or that is no longer new.
