Very fascinating, I had no idea! Meteorites have obviously made a spiritual impact upon humanity. The Kaaba in Mecca has a very, very old meteorite on one corner that worshippers, try to get close enough to, to kiss as they walk around the Kaaba during the Hajj.
Wow, I never knew that about Mecca. Very interesting. Thanks so much for sharing that knowledge with me!
