[meteorite-list] The Joshua impact event

[E.P. Grondine]

Hi Sterling, all,

You can set the biblical account off to one side. 

The destruction of the Hittite King Hantilishi
(Te'hantilishi, Tantalus) and his appenage forces ca.
1585 BCE is well attested in contemporary writings.
(Yes, man was literate then.) See the notes in the
following series for detailed citations of them:

I joined the meteorite list trying to find out if any
remains from this fall had been recovered in Israel.
For devout Jews and Christians, this would be the
ultimate hammer to possess. You can imagine the price
per gram.
