Hi,
According to what I have read the date is correct. "22 rounded
bead-like objects of strongly oxidized meteoritic iron were found in an
Indian burial mound. The material was worked by Indians of the Hopewellian
culture into a number of ornamental beads, R.M.Grogan, American Antiquity,
1948, 13, p.302"
Thanks,
Peter

Subject: [meteorite-list] Bizarre Fall Date in Met Bulletin
According to the online Met Bulletin, Havana Illinois (Iron, IAB complex),
was found in the year "-300".
I am currently researching falls in Illinois and Florida, and I ran
across this goofy typographical error. Or is there some other reason
for this oddball date?
