Looks like raw copper, not sure why you think it is an artifact.

It doesn't look like copper, it looks like melted lead.

It doesn't appear to be a natural formed piece, so yeah I guess that would be an artifact which is basically something made by the action of humans. No clue as to what race, culture or historical period. It looks like a piece of something you find where people burned trash.

my guess is meteorite or emerald. test to see if it is magnetic for meteorite. I also can almost make out what looks like little people in canoes or on horseback chasing after a larger animal. Just the overall shape of the item reminds me of an animal torso, maybe from some old sculpture or possibly a junked attempt.

Not only are you very optimistic, you have a very active imagination.

Where are you seeing them little people chasing a large animal?
