"Livy, Plutarch and other early
historians mention several stones
which had been seen to fall from
the sky. Among those was stone
which fell in Phrygia and was KEEP;
there for centuries, until it was re-
moved to Rome about 204 B. C.
with imposing ceremonies.
IA shower of stones that fell in
the Alban mountains near Rome
about 652 B. C. and a stone that
fell in Thrace in the fifth century,
B. c. was known to Pliny five hun
dred years later.
THE image of the goddess Diana,
which was preserved at Ephesus, is
said to have fallen down from
Jupiter, and was probably meteor
ite. Stones which have fallen from
the sky have been regarded as be-
ing of miraculous origin and have
been worshiped by many primitive
peoples. They have been viewed
with awe, too, by tribes and nations
which could not be considered prim-
tive, including some in India.
China and Japan.
"The oldest existing meteorite of
the fall of which we have an exact
record is that of Ensisheim, in Al

"'On the sixteenth of November
1892, a singular miracle happened
for between II and II in the fore

and a prolonged noise heard ala.
