Carbon dating method is a useful tool to estimate the age of fossils. A radioactive carbon-14 isotope decays with a half-life of $5730\text{ years}$. An ancient wooden artifact was found to have only $80\%$ of its original $\text{C-14}$ content compared to a living plant. Calculate the age of the wooden artifact.
