Dear List,

that our country has no longer any capacity for instrumental neutron activation

Residents in central and western Victoria have reported seeing a bright light,
possibly a comet, streaking across the sky just before sunset.

If this is associated with a burial, I would imagine that it may represent an
oomorphic effigy - a ceremonial object. It is much too large to be used as a
handstone. Does it have any concave surface features? Was it found polished?
Perhaps you can send the photo to a local archaeologist.
I read this book with the title translated as 'Off on a Comet'.
As I understood the story at the time, the comet passed so close to Earth
that people, animals and even a ship were sucked up by it's gravity. At the

Interesting note-- I just saw this web site featured on CBS news

but all show as sold)

Hi,
This is a strictly two-cents-worth opinion,
since I have a stone that is a twin to this one (at
least, photographically) except that it is only the
size of a very small ostrich egg: same shape, same
smooth finish, shiny black and dense, not native
to this limestone country I live in.
