Skeuomorphism (pronounced skyoo-o-morf-izm) is a concept first invented by archaeologist Henry March in 1890. There are more definitions than you can count, but broadly it refers to the aspects of an object’s design that no longer have a function. - http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20171023-the-useless-design-features-in-modern-products
