New historical article

Postby Marko » Mon May 23, 2011 1:29 pm

Hi folks,

I've added a new article to my site, dealing with the ancient Greek meteorite fall of around 465 BC. A stone "the size of a wagon load" fell, and was a tourist attraction for at least 500 years.

Ver interesting, it shows that stones from the sky's were 'revered' even then. Thanks Marko.
