I come from near that area, and there were no missionaries there, and the only Cubans were those involved with rebels in Angola during the South African bush war, for control of parts of the then protectorate South West Africa (150 years later!), which is where Gibeon is (it's Namibia now). West Africa and slavery is far to the North. Also, no one there worships rocks even if they are from space. Different way of doing things. This is a lot of touristy sounding stuff that would never work in Southern Africa - and if you don't position that meteorite in the exact position and lighting, I bet it looks like Mr Hanky from South Park. For $999, which is about R7000, you can fly to South Africa and then up to Windhoek and have a weeks holiday there yourself. The Namibian currency is even weaker than the SA Rand. Go hunt your own Gibeon! -----Original Message----- From: meteorite-list-admin_at_meteoritecentral.com [mailto:meteorite-list-admin_at_meteoritecentral.com] On Behalf Of Peter Marmet Sent: Friday, 11 July 2003 7:43 PM To: list Subject: [meteorite-list] Gibeon for 999$?
