I bought it in the market for 200 dollars many years ago. Is it worth the price. What's this? From which civilization? What about it's period?

Chinese, perhaps?
Compare the designs on this vessel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houmuwu_ding

Where did you get it?

You might not get much here, but I'm interested to hear what comes of your search.

I bought it at the antique market in London long time ago. I don't even know it's real or fake.I just like the pattern.I always thought it came from Mayan civilization or other American civilization.

Mayan or Aztec was my first thought. You could reach out to to Arte Xibalba to confirm:

Appears to be ancient Chinese from the Shang or Zhou dynasties.
