In his Sheba; through the desert in search of the legendary Queen,
(Boston: Houghton Mifflin; 2001), Nicholas Clapp remarks on p.112:, "I
hiked the rim of a crater where a primordial meteor had once smashed into
the Negev." Simply this, nothing more. I have been unable to
find out anything about a fossil impact structure in southeastern Israel
on the border of northwestern Saudi Arabia, either confirmed or not proven.
I would appreciate any information or reference source any list member
might provide or could direct me to. To avoid cluttering up the list
with non-meteorite matter, please respond off-list to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
With many thanks and a Happy New Year to all. David Skene-Melvin
