Finding Dangerous Stuff
If they don't know where it is and can't find out except through you, do not go and move it for safety. The bad guys will only follow you to it or take it from you.
Why do you think they let you know just how much they wanted to find it? "Thanks for saving us a ton of work! And giving us an excuse to laugh in your face and shoot you."
Instead, lead them on a long and dangerous journey into the heart of a secret prison with full surveillance and a dummy artifact. That way, when they try to take it and kill you, the whole thing's on camera and they're already in prison. Slam dunk case!

(Re-)Hiding Dangerous Stuff
If it's really THAT dangerous and no one should ever use it, including you, then by all means, destroy it! The only excuses are if it's indestructible or if it's a living creature (that's not super creepy or a killing machine).
If you can't destroy it, put it someplace no living creature that you know of can survive. Try within a pool of magma or at the bottom of the deepest ocean trench you can reach. Eventually someone might invent the tech to get there but by then, you'll be too long dead to care.
This works too. Dangerous stuff mostly gone.. |
If you don't want anyone to find it, don't leave clues or maps. Otherwise it's guaranteed that people will try to find it, and after enough of them, someone will.
