I believe it was a sort of bronze.
I remember when it was brought up from the bottom.
It was totally legit - covered in scale and stuff ( not forgetting that copper STOPS nearly all forms of life from attacking it).
I don't think there's any need to doubt how old it is.
It was probably passed down by generations for another thousand years for all we know.
They were as clever as we were - it only takes a nasty virus to knock out a pocket of civilisation - and all of a sudden - where did all this stuff come from?
