Hello,
This was brought to my attention, but I had never heard of the event.Anyone?

One interesting line:  The Hopewell people collected the meteorites and forged malleable metal from them into flat sheets used in jewelry and musical instruments called pan flutes.

It would be interesting to hear more.
