Matthias writes:
Individual with a somehow haunted shape reminiscent of a bear, a prehistoric goddess of fertility, or something completely different. The weird shape was caused by weathered troilite inclusions. The forms, especially of iron meteorites, are often of such a complexity that, in its multiplicity of various possible perspectives, it can only compared with that of cubist sculpture. |

Yes, Anne, you're absolutely right (and I am by family name an expert what concerns bears): a bear. An antbear even. |
