[meteorite-list] Holocene start impacts
Hi all - It was hypothesized originally that the reason no crater(s) were found for the Holocene start impacts was because it (they) occured over ice. But the new nano-diamond studies mentioned tree sap as the source for the carbon in the nano-diamonds. E.P.

Re: [meteorite-list] Largest Fall
Hi all - At a certain size you don't get large fragments, but instead end up with spherules. A list of the very ancient impacts ancient man witnessed but from which we have no traditions is given in Chapter 2 of my book, Man and Impact in the Americas. Over the last 13,000 years most impacts were cometary, and so far no larger pieces have been recovered, though the search for crater(s) is on. Since the recovery of the radio carbon dates for Campo de Cielo, it can be identified in the Maya hieroglyphic records from Palenque. The fall date was 17 February, 2325 BCE (Man and Impact in the Americas, page 97). For Brenham, it appears that besides the main mass there was a related small iron shower in the east which the Five Nations remembered (Man and Impact in the Americas, page 354). E.P.

Re: [meteorite-list] Largest fall in the world?
I wouldn't count this as a witnessed fall since there are no reliable records. Sikhote is still the winner. Matt -- Matt Morgan Mile High Meteorites http://www.mhmeteorites.com P.O.

You are missing the largest witnessed fall: Campo del Cielo. The main mass alone is largest than the tkw of Sikhote-Alin. Although pre-historic, it fell in a very populated area. It MUST had been seen by thousands of persons. Although no written documents of the fall (obviously being prehistoric), transmited legends of all the indians of the surrounding areas are consistent with this fact, mentioning falling rocks and fire from the sky.
