Hi Vince and List,
 
I think we have another excellent candidate for our growing meteorwrong
page.
This is a beautifully sculpted stone, but based on the images at:
 
< http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME08.html
<http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME08.html> >
 
it does not appear to be meteoritic. What might be perceived at first
glance
to be flow lines are most likely the result of hundreds of years of
sandblasting
in the Sahara.
 
The second image, showing a large pile of stones:
 
http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME09.html
<http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME09.html>
 
is not resolved enough for me to decide either way.
 
Best,
Rob
