@@ -255,6 +255,16 @@ The primitive type is a 2-byte fixed length binary.
 
 The sort order for `FLOAT16` is signed (with special handling of NANs and 
signed zeros); it uses the same 
[logic](https://github.com/apache/parquet-format#sort-order) as `FLOAT` and 
`DOUBLE`.
 
+### FIXED_SIZE_LIST
+
+The `FIXED_SIZE_LIST` annotation represents a fixed-size list of elements
+of a primitive data type. It must annotate a `binary` primitive type.

Review Comment:
   Could you please provide a concrete example on how the list is structured? 
What about their definition & repetition levels? Intuitively, I thought not 
limit it to binary type. For example, it would be possible to support something 
like int[N] or double[N] and even multi-dimensional list like int[M][N].
