It is a vertebral epiphysis. It might be the right size and shape for deer but that’s a guess.

Wow, thank you for the speedy reply. The dark coloration indicates fossilization, correct?

Tannin exists in the water of the northern USA. It can stain things like porous bone dark quite rapidly. So color is only one thing to look at but keep an open mind for this possibility.
