Here an abstract in english of the Santilli's manuscript I asked to the
journal Antiquity.

A meteorite impact crater in the Sirente mountains, central Abruzzo has
recently been dated to the fourth/fifth century AD. The author shows that=

this catastrophic event can be equated with a locally preserved legend wi=
ch
describes how local people saw a new star fall to earth during a pagan fe=
stival.
Their conversion to Cristianity was expeditiously effected...
